Comment 3 for bug 1311698

Yes, with the updated string in comment #2 i get the same crash/error message in r6960. One way or another, items like tooltips probably needs an upper limit on width (to avoid endless lines, sticking out of the window/screen). So we need some way to handle this to avoid the crashes.

An easy solution is to simply insert a linebreak once the limit is reached and continue writing the rest of the characters on the next line. I'm not familiar with the language though, so I don't know this affects the meaning of what is written. This would be similar to the wrapping which happens here at Launchpad.

(Also, I took the liberty to update the report a bit).
