fill long lines in article

[William Xu]

Hi, 

Suppose there is one long line in the article buffer: 

    >> In 2007, Wired ran another article about GTD and Allen,[15] quoting him 
as saying "the workings of an automatictransmission are more complicated than a 
manual transmission,

Now, try `W Q' (or M-x gnus-article-fill-long-lines), it will filled as: 

    >> In 2007, Wired ran another article about GTD and
Allen,[15] quoting him as saying "the workings of an
automatictransmission are more complicated than a manual
transmission,

This doesn't look beautiful, right? Especially when there are other
following replies.  It would be better to format it like this: 

    >> In 2007, Wired ran another article about GTD and
    >> Allen,[15] quoting him as saying "the workings of an
    >> automatictransmission are more complicated than a manual
    >> transmission,

What do you think?
