cursorline and long lines

Hi,

I've just started using vim, and enjoy it very much. I've searched a
bit, but could not find an answer to the following. So, if this is
obvious, excuse the newbie...

I am editing a text file (latex). I prefer that each paragraph be a
long line, and that vim wrap the text. That's the usual behaviour, and
that works fine. An option that seems very helpful is cursorline, so I
set it (":set cul"). However, this does not do what I want. Namely,
instead of highlighting the *visual* line I am on, it highlights the
whole paragraph. Is there any way to highlight only the current visual
line I am on? Again, a workaround would be to instruct vim to have
lines of at most 80 characters (say), but I don't want that.

Thanks,

Abu Yoav
