I don't think oit is possible to break anything by doing that. Let explain
myself. I'm talking about reflowing on text on stdout. Those lines are already
printed and are not reversible. I'm not talking about trying to tweak lines
when printed by ncurse. ncurse does its job and there's no reason to get in its
way.

As of what should be the default behavior. Since when you resize the window you
expect the text to be refloxed, it should obviously be the default behaviour.
As of the question "should it be configurable?", I want to answer "yes" since
some people might prefer the old behavior even if it's not likely.

I personnaly think that an horizontal scrollbar would be more annoying than
helping there. And it won't solve the most problematic issue which is when you
resize to get your windows bigger to get printed lines fitting on the width of
your window and avoid uncessary line breaks (that often makes things impossible
to read).

Hope I'm clear enough... My english could be better ;).
