Bug Description

See attached screenshot.

I think we are shrinking the column text in python, rather than in HTML. In the attached screenshot, I made the window as narrow as I could before "Summary" started to wrap to 2 columns.

And we still have "Canonical.com Patch ..." and more than 1/3rd of the remaining space is blank in the Author column.

I'm pretty sure there is a CSS way to say "here is all the content I want to put in this column, but if it overflows the width you want to give it, truncate it instead of wrapping".

I don't know what that would be, but I've seen it elsewhere.
