Allow to justify text without flowing into frames explicitly

When creating a new text item and entering 2 or more lines of text, i'd like to be able to configure text alignment to be justified. I know that i can draw a shape or path around it, then let flow text into that and click justify.

But most if times users only need justification of text in easy rectangles to generate block formatting. I wish have eased up process for this in UI.

Is there any chance to allow justification of text items, which are not linked to existing shapes, to use some kind of default virtual rectangle (the bounding box of the text item itself) as "replacement frame"? The width of the block can be determined by the longest text line in the item (which is not wrapped by \r\n). That virtual frame could be unlinked as soon we link the text to a selected frame instead.
