Bug Description

Binary package hint: gedit

This is an enhancement request
As per my UI experience, the text wrapping option should be in the menu with the shortcut key defined, so that people can enable it while viewing the content without setting into the preferences always. Many times it depends on the type of file we are seeing. I like no-wrap while writting python codes, but love to wrap while reading some text content (such as copied news etc).

shortcut key Ctrl+Alt+W or Ctrl+R (rap /wrap) or some other.
