In this case, we at RenderX reduce letter-spacing/word-spacing until the long
word fits into the available line length, so that text distribution into columns
is always respected. If you only need to pull in a character or two, it really
helps (though for a long text like an URL on a very short line, this may stretch
the text beyond readability limits).
