What problem does this solve or what need does it fill?

Newcomers to taffy may have a hard time understanding how to do text layouting:

• wrapping at word boundary
• word truncation if needed

What solution would you like?

I'd like a few examples for text layout (basic, wrapping, truncation)

What alternative(s) have you considered?

Maybe try to understand taffy innards from the source code in my copious spare time ?
