Line Numbering Suggestion
It'd be nice if there was an option so that carryover (wrapped) lines only count as one line. For example, one paragraph would be one line unless the user explicitly presses Enter.
Another great use of this would be for displaying code that often times might have wrapped lines. The current function of OO.o's line numbering will number all carryover (wrapped) lines, so this makes it difficult for inspecting code.
