Actually, It was Jukka Korpela who pointed out in another post that I
could use the <wbr> tag to indicate a permissible place for a line
break. This is used inside <nobr> tags, which seems counter-intuitive
at first, but it gives you control as to exactly where you will permit a
line break and nowhere else...

I've already tried it, and <wbr> works well for IE, but Firefox just
ignores it.
