Other than the two-seater builders, I haven't heard anything from folks
building other than the standard 8' width. Which, admittedly, was
probably more set by the road-towing requirement than any aerodynmanic
factor.
I guess there'd be no harm in enlarging the horizontal, but I haven't
noticed any pitch stability or elevator effectiveness problems that
would justify the move.
