I take this up after a long time. I'm using several multi-OS text editors
that use Scintilla. They all have their own engines to cope with different
programming languages. Imagine I want to write a LaTEX file. I have all
the syntax colouring, etc. The only functionality that is missing for me
is;

break line at the last word boundary before 'fill-column'

This functionality isn't to hard to implement. Many simple editors emulating
emacs in this or another way do it.
If not: Can this be included in the next release?
Scintilla aims to provide basic atoms of functionality that can be
combined by applications into application level actions that follow
that application's policies. As an example of a policy decision, your
preference for joining to the next line may not be wanted by other
applciations or may be contingent on there being no spaces at the
start of the next line.

Its not clear to me exactly what you want. If you want hard wrapping (insertion of new line characters) as the user types then implement this in the application when it receives an SCN_CHARADDED notification from Scintilla.
