I haven't looked at it in detail, but it looks like dillo is referring
'text-align' to the element where it is defined, so positioning the
<div> on the right, and <span> on the left side. As specified in [1],
this is incorrect behaviour:

   'text-align' 
      [...]
      Applies to:  block containers
      [...]

   This property describes how *inline-level content* of a block
   container is aligned. Values have the following meanings: [...]

(Emphasis mine.)

Probably the simplest approach is that dw::Textblock simply uses
widget style, not word style for alignment. I'm not sure whether there
is already one dw::Textblock for each block element.
