in reply to Towards a Text::Wrap::Meaningful?

The only CPAN module for text wrapping I even found useful was Text-Format+NWrap, which sadly isn't on CPAN anymore. You might find a lot of good ideas in that though. Last update was in March 1998.

    For what it's worth, it looks like the functionality of of the ::NWrap module was all handled by Text::Format anyway. According to the Text::Format's page:

    Text::NWrap requires Text::Format since it uses Text::Format->format to do the actual wrapping but gives you the interface of Text::Wrap

    So even if ::NWrap has gone away, you should be able to use Text::Format to do all that you wanted.
