Comment 3 for bug 2004508

There's another problem here that makes things more complicated. Bug titles are editable using a JavaScript widget; so if we added break-long-words, we'd have to implement parallel functionality in the JS inline editor widget. Without frontend experts on staff, this isn't terribly appealing.

So how about we just ellipsize long titles instead? The JS widget already supports that, and it would basically just be a matter of passing `truncate_lines=1` when initializing the `TextLineEditorWidget`. A few other places in Launchpad already do that. Editing the title would show the full value as it already does, and we could possibly also arrange for mouseover to show the full title if it doesn't already. Would that be OK?
