It is not a problem, but a feature. Suppose you would autowrap text,
how could someone send a text which should not be wrapped? Like a code
fragment, poem, table, whatever. You would have to make special cases
for that. While currently, you only need to hit the return key in
stead of the space key. Same number of keystrokes.
