No, or at least none that I know about.
A list of all properties:
http://css-infos.net/properties/webkit.php
http://developer.apple.com/library/safari/#documentation/AppleApplications/Reference/SafariCSSRef/Articles/StandardCSSProperties.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP30001266-SW1

http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-text/#white-space-processing
has some details and future (future !) possibilities, but a complete removal of 
white-space is not on the table I think. It has also a description of all rules 
for the handling of white-space, more detailed than what CSS 2.1:16.6 offers.
http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/text.html#white-space-model

Perhaps something with the flex-box model might help you?
for example: http://help.dottoro.com/lckcfgbc.php
there are many more examples floating around.
