Comment (by arush):
For the time being, I would say use the solution that @afercia is
suggesting. John and I are going to tackle this from the screen reader
angle because there are legitimate reasons to use break-word, this really
is a screen reader bug, and while it's fair to ask devs and designers to
adhere to WCAG, it's not fair to ask them to accommodate screen reader
bugs, even if it's all the screen readers/screen reader magnification
combos which have this bug/feature.
