Nah, for the most part the column selection method works fine. I think maybe people should make a bbedit bundle though, for all those switchers who get lost in TM's features. ;)
Column selection requires the mouse. Many people -- not just BBEdit users -- like to use the keyboard as much as possible.
Column selections may require the mouse in other editors, but not in TextMate:

So for a soft wrapped line, move to column 40 (or whatever) use ⇧⌘←, ⌥, and then ⌃Q to get a reformatted paragraph with a width of 40 columns.
You can also let the column selection start at column 4 or similar to have the reformatted paragraph indented.
