where things like dual carriageways, service roads, etc can result

When active, removes any labels with the exact same text (case
sensitive!) which are closer then this minimum distance.
The setting applies across layers, so duplicate text from ANY
layer will be considered.
of labels along line features
The new "Label Anchoring" section in the line placement settings for
labels allows users to specify whether labels should be placed
at the center, start or end of lines (or a custom percent from the
start of the line). Also allows data-defined percent along line
control!
