I suppose I could do much the same by calling for ragged-right in bibliographies, but that wouldn't handle the occasional very long url.

Thanks!
There are no backslashes in your example, only slashes. I am not sure what you are trying to accomplish. Are you wanting to show the user the URL or are you wanting to be able to follow the URL. You can always place it on a line by itself and then reference it to avoid inadvertent wraps.
