OK, so I've had a chance to look at this again, and my main concern was
with the width of the TODO state quick-select buffer. Now I see that the
length of the line is dependent on my configuration, so that if I
shorten the todo sequence lines in .emacs it looks far better in the
narrow window.

The only remaining issue is with the agenda view, where my longish TODO
items are truncated in the window, so I either need to use follow mode
or see if one of the wrapping functions will work on this buffer.

Thanks
