I eventually settled on this: data:text/html,<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><head></head><body><hr width="700" align="left" border="1" /><table border="1"><tbody><tr><td><i>Recurse</i> ⊈ ∅, <small>ε</small> ∈ <i>Fi</i><sub>(n)</sub>, <i>n</i> ∈ <i>N</i>, <i>n</i> = <i>head</i><sub>(<i>w</i>)</sub> )</td><td> is not the empty set but there is lots of text here to eat space from the each of these words<br> is a potential wrap point which makes the table considerably<br> expensive if the table wrap algorithm isn't greedy.</td></tr></tbody></table></body></html> you should be able to size a browser to fit the hr and then slide around (probably just expanding). the alternative approaches result in the columns jumping as you shrink/expand the window, which seems suboptimal. but generally multipass algorithms are very expensive (tending toward O(n^2) or O(n^3) and giving people indigestion). there's also the minor detail that changing the behavior now would probably break existing content.
