A final question/request (which may go beyond what you want to do, so

(or % of screen width) to use? -- The idea, as some users have
requested, would be to have "distraction free writing" -- something
like WriteRoom.
Agreed; I would propose a fixed maximum width in terms of EMs
(similar to what
CSS allows, cf. http://kogs-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/~meine/
scripts),
thus the user gets his favorite font size, but not unreadably long
lines.
(Recall from typical TeX literature that there is an "optimal",
font-dependent
number of characters per line.)
