There are situations when plain (non-wrapped) text may be mixed with  
wrapped text with commented EOLs, for example

The following section will propose explanations why, as can be seen in  
figure~\ref{fig-fig2}%
\begin{figure}
   \centering
   \includegraphics{fig2color}
   \caption{Statistics for \TeX{} use (including all variants) in the  
humanities over time,
     superposed with \XeTeX{} use.}
   \label{fig-fig2}
\end{figure}%
, the use of \TeX{} for scholarly writing in the humanities has  
increased gradually over time but stayed modest until \XeTeX{} came  
along.

Such (impractical) input is necessary if you want LaTeX to place a  
figure precisely at the first position after this figure is mentioned  
for the first time.

You wouldn't normally want to re-wrap such paragraphs automatically,  
unless you select say several paragraphs (representing several  
screens) and ask TeXworks to re-wrap all of them in one go, one  
paragraph having the above structure which escaped your attention. Not  
very likely, but still...

That said, it's quite possible there's no automated solution and  
situations like the above have to be handled manually.
