I think the column limit for word wrapping should be increased to at least 80
The problem with that is that you'll get terrible line wrapping of any quoted parts after the first reply. Newsreaders and email clients wrap before 80 to give some room for quoted region prefixes. I only know this because I asked Vladimir in IRC why the forum wraps at 65ish and some people ended up explaining this to me. I don't like it still but I understand why it is this way now.
I believe there is an unfinished pull request for DFeed to re-newline quoted regions to avoid this problem.
