I guess the closest to your auto-line-break that would have any chance of being implemented here would be to be able to write the nodes in POD. But the preformance problem chromatic talks about is very valid. This would mean that the nodes written in POD would have to be converted to HTML each time they are to be displayed or they'd be converted to HTML when submited and be presented as HTML to the user if he ever tries to modify it.

Of course the PerlMonks system could store both versions of such nodes, but I think that would be just a waste of space.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
