Is there any other way?  It looks awful like that, especially when one
word of the caption is on the next line.  Then I end up with a line
with only one word in it.

Is there some sort of separator that doesn't actually cause a line
break but is interpreted as a line break for formatting?  Sort of like
the opposite of ctrl+shift+enter?
