Not a perfect solution, because the righthand side digits may move (as a
column) a bit, but:

* set tw=(new value here)
* ctrl-v block of characters
* :B norm! gqap

That also assumes that the text within is a paragraph, too.

The ":B" is supported by my vis plugin:

You can get vis.vim from:

http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=1195 (stable)
http://www.drchip.org/astronaut/vim/index.html#VIS (cutting
edge)
