None of this matters very much.

Just ensure that you don't have very long lines... but it's not a problem if some lines are shorter because you added content that you had to wrap but it doesn't fill the whole new line. Anyway I merged your patch in the master branch. So it will only be used for the stretch version of the book (the strings are frozen in the jessie version, to avoid too much work for translations).
