Using non-breaking spaces means that you may have to put in lots of them.

Henrik's proposal of using rowspan is messing with semantics, so it's 
not a good idea.

What I often wish I had is something I'll tentatively call a soft break 
here. The meaning would be: If you have to break, please try to break 
here and not at some other position.

In the above example, we would put such a soft break after "RFC7991,", 
and would get
                  Implementation notes for RFC7991,
                "The 'xml2rfc' Version 3 Vocabulary"
on short lines, but just a single line if there were enough space.
