Hmm, actually I tried and didn't get any strange behavior. Are you sure it isn't a simple hyphenation problem, i.e. Latex doesn't have good hyphenation points and pushes the word into the margin? Try adding suggested hyphenation points to the word and see what happens: Insert>>Formatting>>Hyphenation point Or subsitute breakable slashes for the slashes (usually: type ctrl-/ instead of just /).
