A quick look suggests it's the quote-space-bracket structure. Remove
the quote or the bracket, and it seems to behave. The problem occurs
for the " character as well as the "66"-type quote symbol and '
although the other punctuation marks I've tried seem immune. It occurs
for ( [ and {. It's as if quote+spaces+bracket is treated as having a
non-breaking space. Ironically, inserting an additional non-break space
(ctl-space) allows a line break - this may be a possible workaround.
There's another related snag too - the sequence
presence <normal-space> ]ACIM
breaks /after/ the ]
Is this expected?
