Adjusting font size without auto-wrapping

I've just used Krita 4.0's text tool for actual work yesterday. First of all,
it was definitely usable -- given that I have done my research and I knew what
to expect of Krita 4.0's text tool and how to workaround all its problems. But
it certainly gave me a lot of headaches, with the lacking of auto-wrapping
being the lead offender.

I think this attachment demonstrated the issue pretty well. Every time I make
change to the font size, every hard line-break has to be reworked. When there
are more than 3 lines, the problem really becomes a huge nuisance. Typography
work typically requires a lot of small adjustments and it's going to be a
nightmare to work in Krita's text tool without auto wrapping.

When we do text work over artwork, the boundary of a block of text is always
fixed and the letters are confined and flow inside of it. That's also why
text-wrapping has been a standard feature even before MSDOS word-processors --
a fixed space naturally asks for such a feature. It is not a strange thing that
all normal users come to expect auto wrapping these days. Doing it manually is
not the end of the world, but it is a painful compromise nonetheless.
