 textbox.

 Shown in the textbox? Or re-added to the beginning of the line? Because if
 the `"bridge "` prefix is being stripped once from the beginning of the
 line in parseAndValidateBridges(), and then not re-added again in
 setBridgeListElemValue():

 {{{
 @@ -1406,11 +1407,7 @@ function setBridgeListElemValue(aBridgeArray)
      {
        var s = aBridgeArray[i].trim();
        if (s.length > 0)
 -      {
 -        if (s.toLowerCase().indexOf("bridge") != 0)
 -          s = "bridge " + s;
          bridgeList.push(s);
 -      }
      }
    }
 }}}

 Then tor won't be able to set the "Bridge" config line.

 > 2. Lines within that textbox will not wrap, which means users may need
 to scroll horizontally to see long bridge lines (but Kathy and I think
 that is less confusing than wrapping).

 I agree. (I also added a similar change recently in BridgeDB because of
 the obfs4 lines being huge.)
