Description
It would be very nice to be able to stretch the length of labels:
- either along a line, or inside a polygon
- either by increasing the space between words, or between letters
- either by specifying the spacing distance, or by automatically spacing to "fill" the length of the polygon or polyline.
e.g. see the labels on most of the rivers in this map http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:National-atlas-north-dakota.PNG
e.g. see some of the labels in the attached map (China, Tibet, Arabian Sea, etc)

I agree, also called letter spacing. This should definitely be an option.
