Comment:

 The oldforms package has been end-of-lifed now, so we are not going to be
 applying any further enhancements like this to it. We do want to check
 that the same problem doesn't appear on newforms, though.
 
 [For the record, there is a problem with this patch as it stands: it
 should only trim the length for really short fields. Otherwise, a field
 with a maxlength of 200 will destroy the form layout. So some kind of
 check that it only adjusts the length to maxlength if maxlength < 30 would
 be required. That is why self.length exists in the first place. It should
 also probably have had a minimum of 2 or 3 on the length.]
