Label wrapping

Hi list,

Yet another stupid question :-)

Is there a way to make "soft" wrapping in a label - like, for instance "wrap
on character 'x' but only in lengths > 20"? I am using WRAP ' ' for a layer
holding feature labels, but when I then have labels like "Averylongname and
Anotherverylongname" it's drawn like this:

	Averylongname
	and
	Anotherverlongname

If I could specify that MapServer should wrap on ' ' but only if the line
so far would become longer than 20 chars:

	Averylongname and
	Anotherverlongname	

See what I mean? If this isn't possible, is it perhaps material for a feature
request?

regards,
