On Windows, if a tooltip consists of  a long, non-breaking string (shopping
URLs are good examples), we display it as one single line that keeps going
right past the edge of the screen.  This matches the behavior of IE, but
doesn't seem ideal.

Firefox 2 truncates the tooltip once it's ~500px wide, but it appears to do
this for all tooltips whether they  wrap or not.  Firefox 3 and Opera wrap the
tooltip like happens in Safari on Mac OS X.  This seems like a lot better
behavior than what we currently do.
