To be honest, it is unlikely we will ever add options for line spacing or very advanced font styling, as they add can a lot of complexity to user experience - consider the underlying wikitext that would be involved, for example. However, we certainly do want to bring the features available in the VE up to par with (and beyond) the older visual editor, and will be continuing to work hard on doing so.
