I once worked with a designer who would ONLY do flash websites for this typography reason. Then we ended up having to write a CMS to generate XML that fed into the flash templates, resulting in lots of actionscript/PHP/XML to detect short words and line-breaks, but at least we had a fixed viewport, but then the client needed it to work on other devices and we had to write another rendering engine from the XML to output to, uh, plain old HTML with line-breaks wherever, because it was feeding into all sorts of non-compliant systems all over due to the XML/RSS business requirements, and the idea that we're sharing content,etc...
So, the precious perfect world we built at great labor was not likely to last long in a real business environment....
