This is really nice. Two comments: i) It doesn't work for the last line in a buffer, if there is no final newline. It seems a bit weird that adding a character to a line (ie a newline) can make it look shorter in the Emacs display. ii) Any chance the cursor could retain the cursor face when it moves into the fringe, rather than switching to the fringe face?
