I have a layout using the old flexbox and am having trouble when a piece
of text appears which cannot be wrapped. It ends up stretching the
entire container. The only way I've found around it is to add another
wrapping "div", but this feels like it shouldn't be necessary.
In the attached sample there is the "content" and "content-inner"
showing this. The outermost "container" has a fixed width, but if I
don't do this double wrapping it will try to accommodate the wide item.
