Yes, this is precisely the same problem. I'm glad to see I'm not alone in this. My current workaround is to search for regexp "/$" and fix it manually, but that's a lot of effort, especially when later inserting more text. Temporarily I would be content with a "select-text -> Tools -> Do-not wrap" type solution. Like the referenced bug report says, the real solution is something more along the lines of specifying word-break characters per language.
