We do use Pango and set wrapping to PANGO_WRAP_WORD_CHAR, which should try and wrap on word and, if the fails, wrap on char. Unfortunately the character wrapping doesn't use hyphens and, it seems, doesn't look for 'good' points to wrap (such are the '.' in the OO.org example).

The WORD_CHAR wrapping was introduced to fix issues in non-english locales such as German and Swedish, where the words are very long an would be cut off.
