Is this length restriction of13 (???) chars per word now _definitively_ the length ALL the translators have to stick to with their translations? Or is this serious cosmetic bug _going to be fixed_ or the restriction to be expanded? I don't know whether to change the translations now or to wait for improvement of the GUI.

There are a lot of languages (not only German, Dutch etc.) where it is practically impossible or at least very ugly to squeeze/shorten words like this.

In the GNOME bug tracker there seems to be _no activity_ on this bug since 2011-04-13 (nearly one year???).

Thanks.
