I think that putting an artificial limit is incredibly stupid. Haven't anyone 
here learned the "No magic numbers" rule?!?!

Walter correctly pointed out that it's harder to read long rows, however, 
unlike printed text and ancient terminals, current display technology is much 
more dynamic. 
Font size, zoom level, screen form-factor, window size, resolution, etc means 
that each person can configure his own individual optimal view. 

As the OP said, use word wrap and adjust your editor window width/font 
size/zoom level/etc to your liking. 
If your editor does not support this "new" feature, go get a new editor and 
don't bother other people with different preferences.
Stop forcing this moronic "one size fits all" attitude on everyone.
