This is one way of doing it:
From the composer window, select tools, options, javascript console and type in
top.opener.GetCurrentEditor().wrapWidth = 120
Evaluate that and "120" should appear to the bottom of the console.
Note that if you do not set a wrap width then the default is 72.

Thx for the answer. The setting you mention works but doesn't seem to be a permanent change. I was hoping there would be a user.js solution (which I couldn't find on webs Mozilla or Google).
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).
Easiest "fix" would appear to be to make
nsPlaintextEditor::nsPlaintextEditor call nsEditor::GetWrapWidth to
initialize mWrapColumn.
