Surely this would break compiler command lines?

Maybe so, but it would also break the 12 mile long lines of commentary that some people manage to produce. It's easier to be able to read the report and just type over the command line than to have to read and scroll and back and read and scroll and...

Was it ever a problem for you that GNATS broke up long lines?

Actually, the real problem is *how* it's done, not that it *isn't done*. See http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11901

(Note that it talks about both the wrapping done when you enter comments, and when you display them).
Stupified yet that it's magic?
Figured out why it doesn't work for the original comments? (I'll give you a hint, it's the conversion script)


I'll make the conversion script do wrap on the appropriate places.
Can you give me a bug number so i can *see* the problem and know when it's fixed?
