No, I'm not asking for a change in the content of the text box. The only
question is how wide to make the text box. 

Options are:

1. Same as what the user set it to.
2. The minimum possible width at which the content fits inside the box (with
paragraphs possibly laid out on multiple lines.
3. The minimum possible width at which each paragraph in the content fits onto
a single line.

As we increase or decrease the width, paragraphs are laid out on more or less
lines; that does not mean the content has changed.

It is important to note that there are no "lines" in the textbox content. There
are _pararagraphs_; and there may be line _breaks_, but not lines. (And this is
why the description of functionality in comment #1 is not valid - it
presupposes there being lines of known width which need accommodating.)
