Hi, i respect the work of the open source community, and they take decissions because of they create the code and they will have to take care of it, but ....
Reduce the number of chars of the filename, just because the directory is crypted is not at all a good decision. Is like not use doors in a car because of is more safe to have only one door at the top of the car, or becasue of the designer of the car decided to put the door in the top.... Is very conmon to use the number of chars ext4 (for example) offers, and if you crypt a ext4 directory you should respect the max file chars of ext4... if not, just create your own crypted file system with your own limits. Is a step in the wrong direction reduce the possibilites of a file system just because of is crypt.
