<!--
With white-space: normal, an ideographic space (U+3000) hangs unconditionally,
as long as every glyph after it until the end of the line also hangs.
With white-space: pre-wrap, a sequence of spaces that is followed by a forced
line break (where the end of the block counts as a forced line break) hangs
conditionally, meaning that the part of it that doesn't fit in the line's
available width is the only one that hangs. (This is independent to whether it
would overflow the block's content area.)
Therefore, unconditional hanging glyphs before such a sequence of conditional
hanging glyphs can only hang if the conditional sequence overflows the line's
available width.
