The character U+2060 (word joiner, & #8288;) should do what you want. But the reader should not break the lines at those points to start with. I don't know if this character is properly supported, and I'm a bit reluctant to include clutter (it makes editing and searching more difficult) in order to work around a clear bug (or we should maybe start writing this character before every comma and fullstop, and around every accented letter, just in case...).
