Let the tools word-wrap it, rather than having the maintainer guess how wide everyone's terminal will be. But that is, perhaps, a point on which reasonable people can disagree - not least because my suggestion makes 'apt-cache show' a little bit less pretty. Omitting the check for forced word-wrapping in bullets cuts down the list of offenders drastically. The following are source packages that actually display _incorrectly_ in dselect / aptitude because bullet points incorrectly word-wrap back to the previous line. (I hand-checked this list for false positives, so it should be mostly fair.)
