  1. We wrap lines at 80 characters.
Ugh, I hate that. Can we change that to more like 140 chars, or no wrapping?
You should have a regulated wrapping because else you have 3000 char line monsters.

I read somewhere between 12 and 14 words is a good line length, in terms of readability, in documentation: 14 * 5 chars (average word length english) + 13 whitespaces + 4 characters prefix = 87

I am fine with 80 chars for documentation. I have made good experiences with enforcing that.
