[...] The problem with auto-wrapping the text after it's written is that, sometimes, you don't want the text auto-wrapped (see my explanation above, and consider short bulleted lists as another example).
But format=flowed solves that, as long as the receiver also supports f=f. And in addition, it doesn't require a heuristic to figure out which text is quoted at what level.
Of course f=f can't distinguish between a line which is long because it's a paragraph, or long because it was something quoted verbatim from a log file or similar, so the receiving client will apply soft wrap to both lines (but using the width of the receivers display).
That said, you're naturally free to wrap and reflow as you like :)
