My KMail sends the line, it doesn't show it. A vast majority of applications 
support on the fly word wrapping.

They *should* not care, they *might* care, wondering why their "OOo" is 
special. I am *not* trying to discourage OOo maintainers from using Go-oo, nor 
even saying that switching to Go-oo without rebranding has more disadvantages. 
I am merely saying it would be nice if it were less hard to figure out that 
Debian's OOo is Go-oo.
