It was certainly always the intention that it be user settable.
That's how it's supposed to work: line length should be controllable
in html as well as plaintext modes.
Grepping for "Pref" under editor/libeditor yields:
base/nsEditor.cpp: (void) prefBranch->GetIntPref("editor.htmlWrapColumn",
aWrapColumn);
That's in nsEditor::GetWrapWidth, and I wonder if that's really the best
way to do it (it will check the pref every time); wouldn't it be better
to check it once, then set an observer on the pref? But nevertheless,
it looks like that pref is intended to do what you want.
However, I just tested it (in 1.5RC1) and it doesn't work. In fact,
looking at the source, nobody outside nsPlaintextEditor ever calls
GetWrapWidth(). This is a bug, not intended behavior; please file it.
Assign it to me -- I can look into it, shouldn't be too hard to fix
(maybe I'll fix the way the pref is handled while I'm in there, unless
anyone objects).
