First, using ReportLab's cjk wordwrap algorithm will break English words into
two lines. This is well demonstrated by your own test script.

Second, also ReportLab's cjk wordwrap algorithm can more sophisticatedly break
Japanese sentences, this benefit is very small, while the drawback of cutting
Western words in halves is very significant.

In Chinese, some full-width punctuation marks such as ,。;” generally don't
appear at the beginning of a line either, but as a Chinese I consider this an
expendable rule if we can keep Western words uncut.
