Right. I'm tired, sorry. :-)

That one wouldn’t work. With the Arial Font I have on my Firefox Win XP
the letters C, D, E, F, G, H, N, R and U get narrower when bold, B, I,
K, L, O, P, Q, S, T, Y, Z, a, b, d, e, g, h, i, j, l, m, n, o, p, q, s
and u stay the the same and A, J, M, V, W, X, c, f, k, r, t, v, w, x, y,
z get wider - and that’s only true for 12px text. See, I'm *really*
tired :-)

  or white-space: nowrap; or overflow: hidden; is no option, since
the text is supposed to break over as many lines as it wishes to. Hm -
even the text has more freedom than me. 

I was fantasizing about some very intelligetn div in div solution that
"knows" how much space the biggest version (bold or normal text) would
take or something...

I've already said that a few times - not quite as polite as you - to
myself...

Thanks to all...
