Nothing will work globally.  Some browsers automatically hard-wrap
textareas, others don't wrap at all.  Some honor the WRAP preference
in the textarea form field, others do not.

Basically, you're screwed, since you don't know whether the text
should be wrapped or not.  Things like log lines shouldn't be, while
plain text probably should be.

Perhaps Text::Autoformat can help.  It seems almost magical
sometimes.  But I don't know if it will deal with log lines and such
things.
