Automatically hard wrap and rewrap selection in all eclipse editors

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Author some asciidoc in an eclipse plain text editor
2. Watch your lines blow right by 80,132,etc columns
3. Wish a tool would automatically & intelligently insert a newline

What is the expected output?
Lines that don't exceed a configured width.

What do you see instead?
LInes that exceed a desired column.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
eclipse Juno on Mac OS X 10.8.4

Please provide any additional information below.

I'd also like to be able to select lines and rewrap them at a desired column.

While technically easily possible, I'm not planning to work on it due the lack 
of time. Feel free to provide a patch. 

Implementation notes:
there at least two features: "auto-wrap on save" and "wrap after ... character".
First one needs 2 new preferences: "autoWrapOnSave" and 
"autoWrapAfterXcharacters" and would work automatically on save if set.

Second one can be implemented via a pop-up asking about "new wrap width".
