Comment 3 for bug 2017943

I personally think the 40 character limit seems very silly, especially since hovering over the note in the Patron Summary only displays the body and not the rest of the title.

Converted alert messages also get the following title "converted Alert Message, real date unknown", which doesn't even display fully in the summary, resulting in "converted Alert Message, real date unkno". Why?

I would be in favor of removing the limit entirely or at least controlling it through a library setting. If a limit is set, I agree with John that the limit should also apply to the title field when the note is created so that we aren't left with oddly truncated notes in the summary.
