Thanks.

This still doesn't support strings, only buffer text.

Also, why are you putting a text property, instead of just examining
the category as part of IT_CAN_WRAP?  What do you need the property
for?

And finally, this feature must be optional, so some customization
knobs are missing.  But we could defer this until the basic code is in
good shape.
