Comment #5 on issue 1015 by percival.music.ca: doc line width
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1015

No; we should not consider individual examples when deciding the  
line-width.  The maximum line-width should be specified based on:
- the whole-page width of the pdf we produce
- the whole-page witdh of whatever paper people usually use to print out  
our pdf onto
- whatever additional margins lilypond-book and/or lilypond use.
- the maximum length of png examples we want in the html docs
- anything that the info guys want with regards to length

Once we have an answer, that will be the default + maximum line width for  
*all* the examples.  Note that ragged-right is enabled by default for  
single-staff output.  Docs about spacing may *reduce* the line-width if  
that's necessary (say, to demonstrate some line breaking stuff), but  
nothing is allowed to *increase* the line-width.

That's why I said that 1015 was blocking 1180.
