[texworks] word wrap and dollar signs

I upgraded to 0.4.6 somewhat recently, and most of the changes are
good.  (In particular, hurray for precise SyncTeX!  I don't use hard
wrap, so I was never able to get better than paragraph level precision
before, which is especially painful when the paragraph spans a page
boundary.)

There is one change that's been annoying me a lot though, and I can't
find it in the change log which makes me wonder whether my memory is
playing tricks on me, though I doubt it.  Let's take the sentence
"Observe that $x$ is never prime".  The old version would keep the
substring "$x$" on one line.  The new one sometimes breaks it right
before the second dollar sign.  Sometimes it also breaks things right
after the first dollar sign.  I like having math stay on one line, and
I don't like pressing "enter".

Any chance to get the old behavior back some day?
