I do not agree with this conclusion. As I already commented on another
bug ([Bug 3085] TRACKER_ID rule not very useful) some languages simply
use longer words/sentences (on average) than English.
Having no short and accurate translations of many/most computer related
English terms complicates the matter.

IMO, this really indicates the limit of 50 characters is too low.

I count 823 German rule description (788 unique) and 242 of them have a
length of > 50 characters, with a maximum length of 70. This was the
result of cutting away as much as I could for the release of 3.0 (I
_did_ test with --lint before I submitted the descriptions).
I doubt you can bring them _all_ under the limit of 50 characters.
