I am confused by your question.
Changing the wrapping only changes the display of text. It
does not change the connection between what you type and
what gets sent to the server.
I suspect that what you are complaining about is that all
text is assumed to be raw HTML. Well having an option to
view it as formatted text might be nice (just steal from the
/ code-base) but is a somewhat separate problem. (For
Netscape users such an option would be useless without the
wrap attribute I just mentioned. To see what I want in
action go to a site like
kuro5hin, get an
account, and try to post in Netscape.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
