I did not know about \hfilneg. Nice answer! Is there a reason you use \penalty0 instead of \allowbreak?

No, there is no reason. I prefer to use primitives (I don't need to remember many other control sequences), but there are usable shortcuts: \nobreak instead of \penalty10000, for instance).

In one place I did this, the line doesn't stretch out all the way. Is this because the line is "underfull" or because of some artifact of this workaround?
