> Hyatt, do you now agree this is  good change, or do you still think it will prevent breaking URLs?

Hi, Hyatt, I think even without this change, long URLs still have few chances to break. I just did a stat on 70418 complex URLs (selected from our crawler library), 62649 (89%) of them don't contain number-after-hyphen or contain other line-breaking opportunities near (distance <= 10 chars) number-after-hyphen.

I'd also like to implement a more complex algorithm like the one mentioned in #3 if most of you agree it. This might require a refactoring of the current line breaking code. However, the refactoring can also make it possible to fix bug 37543.
