 In WordPress it is possible to use html tags inside posts title. This is
 very nice: for example, it allows to use italics, and to make posts titles
 wrap where one wants. When the latter is the case, though, the titles get
 displayed good in the post, but not in the browser's window title (that
 usually the browser builds after the `<title>Foobar</title>` html entity),
 and not in the link previews that one can get by linking a post into a
 social network post (that usually have their title based on the `<meta
 property="og:title" content="Foobar" />` entity).
 For example, a post title like `First line<br>second line<br>third line`
 will result in a `<title>First linesecond linethird line</title>` entity
 and in a `<meta property="og:title" content="First linesecond linethird
 line" />` entity, that will result in ugly and difficult to read browser
 window and link previews titles.
 This could be avoided by changing WordPress code so that it added a space
 character on every possible "wrap point" (`<br>`, `</p>`, `</div>` and so
 on) in a post title when building "html titles", "og:title"s and the
 likes.
