SORRY, incorrect: it does *not* trigger hasLayout.
CORRECT INTEPRETATION: *{display:inline-block} creates a line-break
opportunity.
Every tested browser treats an empty element with {display:inline-block} as a
line-break oportunity. See my *heavily* updated test page:
http://malform.no/testing/html5/nobr
Thus, instead of wbr{content:"\00200B"}, we could simply say
wbr{display:inline-block}. This is far more compatible with existing web
browsers, as well.
