Imo, the "Search" text needs to move up about a pixel and the "future 
of..." text needs to move down 2 or so pixels. But, I'm just nitpicking 
and I know you're trying to align the baselines of both text blocks, so 
I'm happy with whatever you do.

I like it being force-justified. Is adjusting the kerning difficult?

Can't you just hit Shift+Enter before "more" and hit Backspace before 
"details"?

Right. I understood that. It doesn't work for me. But, again, I'm 
nitpicking.

Then, just move it up a little so it is centered within the space.

It might be "common practice" for some, but it doesn't work for me here. 
That's why I brought it up. But, it's a "whatever" for me as well. No 
biggie.
