I definitely would not leave any bare wires dangling around, especially since it is possible that the wire is shorted to some other wire inside the harness. If you want to make sure that the car can be returned to original configuration, then I would put some insulator around the wire. I have found that heat shrink tubing is very durable inside the engine compartment and can be slipped onto the wire and the shrunk down to a tight fit using a match or candle. Otherwise just cutting off the bare excess should be OK. Ballast resistors which can be attached to the coil mounting are inexpensive and readily available if going back that way is ever wanted.
