I prefer to get rid of server-side comment wrapping. In my case, people often submit patches <verbatim> text, with valid > 80 columns, and the auto-wrapping screws it up. Yes, they could have used attachments, yet it's more straightforward to add a comment for a small amount of text. <br>

Does that actually matter? I'm asking because there is currently a bug<br>
that would be resolved if we did all comment-wrapping client side.<br>
(Though I'm actually not sure that all browsers can do that reliably,<br>
but I haven't tested in a while so I forget.) The only problem is that,<br>
as far as I'm aware, there's no way in CSS to say "this element should<br>
be exactly X characters wide" so we'd lose the "wrap at exactly 80<br>
characters" functionality.<br>
