I agree.
Meanwhile I wrote a friend who is a vim aficionado, and he advises it
IS possible to achieve soft word wrap in vim.
When editing a text file, if you want word wrapping, but ONLY want line
breaks inserted when you explicitly press the enter key:
:set formatoptions=1
:set lbr
lbr tells vim to word wrap visually, but formatoptions=1 tells vim to
not insert hard newlines when you edit the middle of a 'paragraph.'
