regrtest's printlist is trivial to implement on top of the code you posted:
def printlist(x, width=70, indent=4):
guts = map(str, x)
blanks = ' ' * indent
w = textwrap.TextWrapper()
print w.fill(' '.join(guts), width, blanks, blanks)
TextWrapper certainly doesn't have to worry about changing the list into a
string, all I want it is that it wrap a string, and it does.

It's no more than 10x more elaborate than necessary, so ship it <wink>.
