But a PDF document doesn't need wrapping. And you can still split
a window if/when you switch from the PDF to something else.
In any case, I'd be interested in a patch which adds some kind of
wrap-width buffer-local variable, but it needs to also be obeyed in
windows that are narrower than wrap-width.
