I don't think that code boxes have ever wrapped, and I would plead against them
doing so. But they certainly did have their own horizontal scroll bar, so that
they didn't affect the plain text wrapping elsewhere in the thread.
A few years ago, we had the same problem of over-size images rendering other
text posts in the same thread unreadable for lack of wrapping: it would be wise
to check that case too, plus the use of [pre] tags to preserve tabular
formatting.

Something else, similar.
In Firefox, when someone uses the [code][/code] tags, these do not wrap
long sentences. This means that text inside and outside the code box runs
off the right side of the screen.
It also means text in previous and later posts can run of the right side of
the screen.
Example thread:
https://boinc.berkeley.edu/dev/forum_thread.php?id=11290&postid=74082 has a
code box with the processor features running off the side of the screen.
This affects the post previous to that one and also earlier posts in that
thread.
The solution we had in BOINC, was I think that the text in code boxes
wrapped at the end of screen, or that the code box had its own horizontal
scroll bar. We do need something similar here.
