That depends on what problem we’re trying to solve now. Is reading
breadcrumbs as a sentence a problem? I couldn’t test but “Home [pause]
Foo [pause] Bar” does not look like an issue to me. Even without a
pause a user likely understands what’s going on, which means there’s
no reason to add more markup.
