Agreed -- but that's not what I was asking for, because it's not just
for _display_. The example you cite is what happens when you're starting
to compose a new message based on the old one.

If the original subject was long enough that the one added 'Re: ' takes
it over 80 characters, then yes, re-folding is appropriate. But note
that the _user_ still gets editorial control, and can edit it as desired
to put the line break somewhere more appropriate than the place the
software chose.
