Subject: keep text from overflowing right margin

I've been sloppy about this so far, and outside of tests I can't find
any examples where it matters, but it matters in a potential fork where
I'm rendering multiple columns of text.

It's unfortunate that my tests have this level of brittleness. What I'd
really like to assert in many of these changed lines is that the text
stays inside the margins and that more text would overflow margins.
