pseudo console and auto-wrap

With ConPTY support, the following command results in output that 
contains an explicit newline at the auto-wrap position:
cmd /c echo a line which is wider than your terminal ...

For copy/paste, this is surprising and undesired 
(https://github.com/mintty/mintty/issues/971).
Can the line wrapping case be handled specifically, assuming proper 
auto-wrap mode on the terminal side, to avoid this?
