I would like the option to automatically enable line-breaking in every document because I prefer that over line-wrapping. When somebody opens my source, it won't necessarily wrap at the same location, but the lines should break at the same locations.
It is really not very simple to do automatic line breaking sensibly in source code, it is better that you break that yourself.
For pure text files it might be possible to break a line if a word crosses a limit, but it isn't as useful as it sounds, what about a paragraph where you add a word to a line in the middle and make the line too long? Then the next line has only one word on it, yuk :-)
I agree.
Trying to do a reflow of the paragraph in real time is a problem because of the overhead and the display movements it can cause.
I could imagine of a plugin doing this.
I find that just pressing Ctrl-J now and again handles most cases.
I agree. Also there is the option Line break on documents menu you could activate.
