Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:

With Caja folder view active, click a JPEG image with right mouse button and select "Properties" from the context menu. This opens a properties window which will contain tab "Image" if the image contains Exif data.

Actual results:

In case "Keywords" field (maybe others, I hit this case with a stock photo) contains a very long string without spaces, the whole window will be rendered overly wide often exceeding the monitor width.

Expected results:

In case "Keywords" field (or any other field) contains a very long string without spaces use horizontal scrollbar for the content instead of forcing the window very wide. As an alternative line wrapping could be forced at the window border.

See the attached image; window could only made wider but it couldn't be made narrower.
