Wrap: Line-breaking occurs if the line overflows beyond the available block width, even if the standard line breaking algorithm cannot determine any line break opportunity, as in the case of a very long word constrained in a fixed-width container with no scrolling allowed.

WrapWithOverflow: Line-breaking occurs if the line overflows beyond the available block width. However, a line may overflow beyond the block width if the line breaking algorithm cannot determine a line break opportunity, as in the case of a very long word constrained in a fixed-width container with no scrolling allowed.

Based on that wrap will always wrap, WrapWithOverflow will only wrap if it finds a valid place to break the line.

"WrapWithOverflow " just plain seems like a bad choice of words to describe what it's doing. WrapOnValidBreakOnly might have been a better choice.
