Maximum length for strings

[boris-dev]

Sometimes we need strings to be not more than some number of characters. For example for buttons or caption of fields. Translators may not know this resctriction and can make application looks horible. For example button "launch" in my application can be maximum 12 characters and when it takes more It pushes other views away. In German this word may be translated as "Markteinführung" It takes 16 characters! It would be great to add this kind of validation. (may be with edit button for string).

Not sure whether this is the best way to handle such problems.

Maybe hard limits should not be enforced against users. The project staff may just decide not to accept new strings that are too long. Or we may use the context/comments for strings that is to be added.

Nevertheless, we should probably leave it here for now :)
