I see I'm late to this discussion, but I do know of one English-language book that discusses this: CJKV Information Processing by Ken Lunde. There is a "Typography" chapter that includes a discussion of avoiding starting/ending a line with certain characters, using pretty much the methods people have mentioned here. It's only a small part of the book, but it does go over the basic sets of rules you can use.
