In visual line mode headlines wrap around and remained glossed as
headlines; nevertheless it would be better if they adjusted to the
hierarchy:

/***** I weary of scholars neighing against Ahab, who is magnificent in his
       heroism. Would they have him hunt for more blubber? His chase has
Job’s
       Leviathan in view, a quarry representing Yahweh’s sanctified tyranny
of
       nature over man.

Far more readable (and elegant) than:

/***** I weary of scholars neighing against Ahab, who is magnificent in his
heroism. Would they have him hunt for more blubber? His chase has Job’s
Leviathan in view, a quarry representing Yahweh’s sanctified tyranny of
nature over man.

I tend to avoid long headlines, but sometimes they are necessary.
Hopefully there is a quick fix already out there.

The ability to fill headlines would also be a solution here.
