I oppose it as an alternative to longlines mode.
I don't necessarily oppose it as a way of continuing lines,
but I want to make sure it does not grow into an alternative
to longlines mode.
I never intended it to be an alternative to longlines mode. That is
specifically why I have NOT made any attempt to make line-move and
friends treat DTWW differently from normal continued lines.
However, this is probably not the right time to add DTWW ...
Experimenting with it anyways.
Your patch works well, except that wrap-column behaves like default-
wrap-column: I need to set it and create a new buffer for it to come
into effect. It should affect the current buffer when it is changed.
The next step would be to allow for wrap-column to follow the width
of the window (probably easy) and to support - at least in the case
of (eq wrap-colum 'max) (i.e. follow the window) - variable-width fonts.
Having functions to move up and down "into" a wrapped line would be
something that would be a great help in Emacs 22. If they're not
bound to up/down by default, the functions can't break much. (if I
had the technical knowledge about Emacs' display engine, I would
write a patch - sorry!)
