It would > make sense to have an option not to wrap the table even when lines are > not truncated. I don't understand what you mean by "not wrap the table". If truncate-lines is nil, then long lines _will_ be wrapped. The Emacs display simply don't have a third possibility: either long lines are truncated or they are wrapped. Preventing wrapping can cause it to wrap the line at some other place, but wrap it will. So I don't think I understand the request, and therefore don't see how tables could be another relevant use case. Can you elaborate?
