I don't know of any way to do this that works in IE and doesn't require you to
specify a fixed width.  I don't think we want to degrade display for the
majority of our users for the sake of a minority, even a more
standards-compliant-browser-using minority.

I guess we could do inline-blocks with a fixed width and rely on wrapping
within each block.  I think that would work.  At least Firefox 2 doesn't
support inline-block, so we might have to use floats for it instead, and
specify both width and height or something (which would get pretty messed up
for long page titles).

Overall, this is nontrivial to do until we can rely on CSS column-*, which
(surprise!) IE doesn't support, up to and including IE8.
