At least gedit (and notepad.exe, IIRC) do it by default. I would, if not for the fact that longlines-wrap-follows-window-size doesn't behave well when the buffer is simultaneously displayed in two windows with different widths. This is not fixable without C-level changes. There have been discussions about this issue on this list in the past, but I don't think it'll be fixed in the immediate future. So the current behavior is a compromise. > Maybe displaying an indicator in the fringe by default? That might work.
