visual-line-mode is no less misleading - in addition to enabling visual
motion commands it also enables word wrap mode.  And there is no way
to enable visual motion commands without enabling warping text at
word boundaries.

These are two separate features amalgamated into one mode.
I think we should provide a way to toggle them separately.
