Not a silly question at all!  Having looked at the code, the short
answer is *no*, unfortunately.  The only wrapping the ascii exporting
does is on /notes/ generated by the conversion of links.

It would be a nice feature to have, however...  I had a look at the
fill.el code and I'm sure some of it (fill-region) could be used quite
nicely within org-ascii.el but my emacs-lisp abilities are not
sufficiently good enough for me to attempt changing the code.  Sorry.
