I was having a similar idea. I'm not sure how many lines we would save
that way, but it seems to me we could use a slightly longer threshold --
say 8 chars before we cause a newline and wrap.
Maybe we need to come up with guidelines for translators, also. As
somebody noted, I've always gone to some trouble to produce translate
output that preserves the original's constraints; I don't see any reason
forother translations to behave differently.
(By all means, if we add entry-separating newlines, let's not put them
as part of the translatable string.)
