hmm... I'm not sure it is problem. I think there are two patterns when 
you paste/write the URIs.

1. URI is a independent.

I.e., URI is an only member of a paragraph. In western context, we use 
empty line for paragraph separator. So, the wrapped URI doesn't make any 
confusing.

2. URI is a word.

I.e., URI is an inline word of paragraph. In old layout, the URI was a 
line. Now, the URI might be separated two or more lines. But there are 
really word separators around URI. So, the URI is always an independent 
word. (And other browsers have same behavior, but I don't know the 
objections for it.)

I cannot understand what is problem. Note that Japanese text is 
breakable in most points, so the broken words are natural things for me...
