  While we could resort to POSTing instead, I can see the reasoning behind
not doing that. Pragmatism would probably trump such reasoning though. I
think other solutions would either limit the field sizes or warn of
possible loss of data over some limit. Perhaps I have missed something
though.



IMO let's use POST


I think that is probably the correct answer too but I am tempted to commit
the patch as is and let Antony continue with enhancements if he wishes. I
am unaware of any regressions from his current approach so I think this is
already much better behaviour.



Yes , my intention was not to suggest that current solution should not be
committed . However at least in theory there are two aspects missing IMO

   1. use POST
   2. testing
       * though this one might be impossible *now* since js code is involved


Fair point.. there could conceivably be tests. Anyway, I have committed the code - my only modifications at this point have been minor style changes.

I've opened #727 for further work. If Antony is interested in continuing, he will, of course, be very welcome to!

Cheers,
    Gary
