> In some cases, the algorithm decides incorrectly when to which package names
> to abbreviate. For example, abbreviating
> {{org.apache.commons.lang3.ClassUtils}} to the length 18 will result
> {{o.a.c.lang3.ClassUtils}} (22 characters) instead of {{o.a.c.l.ClassUtils}}
> (18 characters as requested). The reason for this is that the algorithm
> starts from the right and goes to the left abbreviating the packages and
> starts to abbreviate the packages when it runs out of the available space.
> Instead, the algorithm should start from the left and abbreviate all packages
> that would result in a too-long string without abbreviating the package name.
