I think your example is "Prettier"  too.
I would do the same thing even if I had the ability to do longer.

Aaron,
Personally, I would much rather see it like this:

#WrStout('<option value="' +
                %trim(IDID)  + '">'  +
                %trim(IDNAM) + '-'   +
                %trim(IDID)  + '</option>' +
                nl);

The option tag isn't a good example of WHY, but when mixing variables and
constants, I like to see them on separate lines.

personal preference...

although, even though I wouldn't use more than 80 (or 40 even) my
preference wouldn't/shouldn't exclude you from your preference.
