Bug Description

Binary package hint: indicator-me

Even if only services that support longer status messages are active in gwibber, the me menu text field doesn't let the user send longer messages.

On the other hand, gwibber itself let the user send the message (even if it display the 140 chars limit in the textbox: related bug #522986 )

Sorry, this is a known limitation, as the per-service character limit was not exposed by the gwibber service earlier. Natty change now.
