You should also check out cme :)

I agree, that's also the one I love the most ^^

I'd like to converge togethre with cme, so I'm CCing its maintainer to
see whether he has an opinion.  If so I'd clone the bug so he can do it
as well.
(TTBOMK cme doesn't allow configuring this detail, it only does the
equivalent of plain `wrap-and-sort` in this regard).
