A word-wrapped line is essentially the same as a continued line; it's
just that the line is continued at a word boundary rather than a window
edge. In terms of the buffer contents, it's all one long line, so
there's no reason for margin properties to have any effect on the
subsequent *screen* lines in the wrapped line.
