Object properties ID field maximum length is too short

[Mitch Curtis]

For example, if I try to enter the following ID:

share/qtcreator/templates/wizards/projects/qtquickapplication/icon-empty

it gets cut off at:

share/qtcreator/templates/wizards/projects/qtquickapplication/ic

Editing the SVG manually seems to work:

https://codereview.qt-project.org/gitweb?p=qt-creator/qt-creator.git;a=blobdiff;f=src/tools/icons/qtcreatoricons.svg;h=d8c61ce40bd76619cefe49435712daab20020625;hp=c700a1906c6e82a350b18fa17e13a887b4cfc620;hb=5e5cf3c241bf8393f3e66c453d91e12b9020f098;hpb=9ee0cec3bcd90de5e130af1ee064ababab0f94b2

so this appears to be a bug in Inkscape.

Looks like the relevant code is here, where it has a 64 character limit:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~inkscape.dev/inkscape/trunk/view/head:/src/ui/dialog/object-properties.cpp#L117

The line above also says "(only letters, digits, and the characters .-_: allowed)", and it indeed removes them if I enter them through the UI. Although, again, this seems to work if the SVG file is edited manually. The forward slash thing was a pre-existing convention in the file that I'm editing... perhaps the author will have to re-think it, though.
