Yeah, I was just messing about, trying to achieve a discretionary line-break (I'd really have liked a zero-width space for that in fact :-)
I'll remove them when I next push (they're added as part of the transform, not inline in the source).

    Discretionary line breaks can be achieved with the Soft Hyphen (­, I think). However, it doesn't work in Firefox (or other gecko-based UAs), and where it is supported elsewhere, it will add a hyphen before the break. Don't know if that helps or hurts, but might give you a place to start.
