This sort of illustrates my point.
IMHO this does not work well (certainly not when compared to a WPF TextBox).
I think:
1. Pasting is not handled adequately (sufficient text should be pasted in up to
the maxLength).
2. If a range of characters is selected then the selected characters should be
removed and then sufficient text should be pasted in up to the maxLength.
