What is the wreck's opinion on how wide a breadboard end can be
on a kitchen
table? I'm looking to add length, but don't want proportions to
look bad.
Overall, the table will be 6'9" by 3'6"

I'd go with 3'6", Joe. gd&wvvf

A good default ratio is the golden mean.

Not in this case, Nonny. 5/8 (roughly) of 3'6" is 26-1/4" which is
way too deep for a breadboard end. 2-1/2 to 3-1/2" would be my guess,
but I'd check that physically before working the pieces too far.
