You're reading a 20 page document, you've already read up to page 10, and then you decide to search for "very important thing", why would you want to wrap if you've already read the first 10 pages?

Anyhow sure try to get someone from usability, but comparing okular to kate is an apples to pineapples comparison imnsho.
