Default Typesetting: Non-breaking space with justified alignment

When writing a scientific article often two columns are used with justified
alignment of the text over the width of the column. A non-breaking space
(Ctrl+Shift+Spacebar) can be used to prevent separate but related words from
breaking. The words are kept together and are placed on the next line.
However, the non-breaking space has a fixed width and does not justify. It
would be useful to have a non-breaking space that justifies. For instance
with names €śJohn Smith€ť or references €śliterature [2]€ť. In other cases it is
still useful to have a non-justifying non-breaking space, for instance with
physical values €ś10 mm€ť or €ś30 mph€ť.
