that's not true -)

the problem is that it is quite hard to get the spacing ok in situations like

text

formula

text

this has to do with the fact (and i spent days on that topic) that tex only 
knows the length of the last line when in display math mode and even then 
not always

this means that when one wants control over spacing, and to take the length 
of the last lin einto account, one has to go through a lot of trouble; i 
once had it working but somehow lost something in the code, so i need to 
look at it

suggestion for gbetex: lastlinelength always available
