the point is not that I would expect something special in this case as
a default (I'm fine with the way 2.14.2 handles it).
But I was looking for an automated optional method to insert \break
before the bar with the long markup-text, as Tobias requested in his
initial mail.
But it seems not to be possible, as Mike remarked.
Cheers,
