This release changes line-breaking rules to yield a big speed-up and enable multi-line footnotes:

  • When wrapping a line, only do so at the last space before the line length limit; do not break any words to remain within the limit. "Words" that extend beyond the limit are not likely to be meaningfully breakable in the first place, and breaking is actively detrimental to URLs. This change alone yields a 6-8 times speed-up as reported by time(1).

  • References may span multiple lines, subsequent lines following the same indentation rules as list items. The syntactical unit has been renamed to footnote to better capture the new functionality.
