This is true. As far as I can tell, the only real objection that's
been raised specifically to the increased real line length is that
long lines aren't safe to mail. This problem can easily be
circumvented by using MIME & metamail (plug plug, although I have
nothing to do with it -- I'm just interested in seeing MIME used in
WWW).
