   footnote. It might have a really long amount
   of text that goes with it that will need to
   be reflowed.

You can also get the longest possible form of the rst text by using 0 for the space. For example:

>>> paragraph = '\n'.join(['line 1',
                           'line 2'])
>>> print(reflow(paragraph, 0))
line 1 line 2
