Very strange.  I don't observe this behaviour at all.  With
visual-line-mode enabled *and* truncate-lines disabled (so that the
lines are actually wrapped on the screen; note that org sets line
truncation to be on by default), the text in my display (for a short
example) appears as 5 or 6 lines (depends on the window width, of
course) but the exported HTML is a single line.
