I'm not sure the previous behaviour was any more correct.  It's now
filling that string as if it, well, is a string, so that if you insert
it somewhere, the lines have similar lengths.  The previous behaviour
was to fill "what you see in the buffer", which is wrong in most
contexts.

So I don't know.  Anybody have an opinion?
