It needs Unicode experts. If we support Unicode, we should implemente UAX #14.
http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr14/tr14-45.html

But I am not sure some core developer love textwrap and Unicode enough to 
implement it.
It can be implemented in 3rd party package before adding it in stdlib.

Then, is U+2014 really important to implement even though we can not implement 
UAX#14 in foreseeable future?
It doesn't make sense to me.
