Dear all,
for egoistical reasons I'm in favor of a limit of 100 to 106 characters only. Otherwise I can no longer fit three terminal windows next to each other on a (these day standard minimum display width) of 1920, which would be a major step back in terms of being able to look at multiple source files simultaneously.
If you update this, I would prefer 100 or so too.
Unless you use very long function names, the only reason that I've seen for people to go over that boundary is a symptom of low quality code.
I don't think asking for this is egoistical, it's a technical reason. Long lines are quality metric on code.
