Finally coming back to this.  I made a change in commit b3987a0 to 
remove the extra stretch around some characters in URL's but to allow 
ragged right formatting within URL's.  It will break anywhere allowed 
within a URL no matter how much space is left on the line.  This 
produces acceptable results (IMHO) for the input you sent.
