I don't think you're going to get a lot of argument from folks that 78 characters isn't a whole lot. However, that RFC is the MOST current internet specification and the one that should be used. Feel free to offer your services to the RFC folks if you want to help make a change. I also challenge you without using MIME to send a message longer than 78 characters and have EVERYBODY receive it using YOUR presets (they won't). That's simply because you don't control this, the relays have some say in how long lines can be.
