(I've looked into actual Web pages to see which would be more useful: to line break tooltips or not to, and my conclusion was that it's more useful to do so. http://simon.html5.org/dump/titles-with-line-breaks-all.txt (thanks Philip`)) So I think the spec should advice authors to be careful with title="" and line-wrapping and the spec shouldn't use line-wrapped title=""s in examples unless the line breaks are intended part of the content.
