Allow docsting and comment length to be managed separately

[mderner-ca]

Obviously Flake8 makes no attempt to manage the line length of lines with "fewer structural restrictions" but it is specifically mentioned in PEP8 and is something I like to hold to especially for side by side diffing.

I have only just come to Ruff so please point me in the right direction if this doesn't exist but I would really like to see this

Thanks for opening a discussion!

I don't believe you can currently configure different lengths for comments and docstrings, although comments and docstrings can have a different shared length from the baseline line-length setting via max-doc-length. There was a similar request in #15733 where I offered a pretty hacky workaround for skipping comments entirely.

There's some related discussion in #4595 too, but neither of those is exactly the same.

Oh no I think that's exactly what I want! I want to enforce W505 and keep docstrings and comments restricted to 72 chars. That's excellent! Thank you so much for the incredibly quick response <3

Oh, perfect! Glad I could help :)
