Please explain what exactly is not right about the results.
visual-line-mode doesn't understand the text it renders, it just
breaks lines at whitespace.  What would you expect it to do instead in
this use case?

I'd expect the text not to be broken, because the `after-string' text already includes newlines, and the length of each line there equals to the value reported by (window-width).

Without overlays, even when visual-line-mode is enabled, I can make a window body 34 chars wide and type 34 characters (maybe including spaces) on a line without seeing them break up.
