long text field contents create out-of-bounds window

[Alexandros Papadopoulos]

Binary package hint: firefox

When Firefox presents a dialog box that contains a field with a very long text string, the window seems to expand horizontally to encompass the string, going beyond the visible screen's boundaries.

The correct behavior, depending on the context, would be to either truncate or wrap the text string.
