There's something, namely the <wbr> tag, which is widely supported by

problem, it's best to consider whether the content is meaningful and how it
might be changed.

"Doctor, it hurts when I do this."
"Then don't do that."
That is, why do you create the problem by squeezing something into a narrow
area where it cannot fit?
