Have you tried `auto-fill-mode'?  With this turned on Emacs will break
all of your lines automatically as you type, and your tables will be
able to grow unaffected.  If you do begin to use auto-fill-mode you will
probably want to become familiar with the `fill-paragraph' command
(mapped to M-q) which you can use to tidy up paragraphs which have
gotten away from `auto-fill-mode'.

I don't know of any way to enable longlines-mode without affecting
tables.
