Just to follow up quickly, two possible ways have been suggested for doing 
this, but one way seems to require increasing the distance between words on the 
page, which I'd prefer not to do.  The other I haven't looked into in enough 
detail to see whether it will work, but I may do that soon.

As a potential workaround, would it suit your purposes nearly as well to make 
the font size larger?  That increases the area for which a particular tooltip 
shows up, at the cost of reducing how many symbols fit inside your browser 
window at one time.  Might be worth a try to see if you like it better.
