Adam Monsen updated MIFOS-3934:
-------------------------------
Description:
questions.question_text can be up to 1000 characters, so short_name was likely
originally created to... display something shorter? Confirm this. If so, we can
eliminate the column and simply crop the question text when necessary when it
is displayed in the Web UI.

h2. considerations
* only use questions.question_text for question texts
* questions up to 1000 characters will then be allowed
** .ftl pages (like questionDefinition.ftl) need to allow this
** update queries in QuestionEntity.hbm.xml
** update tests, as necessary
Another bit I noticed is many references to a question "title". This was
confusing since it doesn't match the name of any database column. I vote we
simply remove this nomenclature, "Question" is good enough. In the code, simply
refer to questions as "question" or "question text" as appropriate. In the UI,
change "Question Title" to "Question" wherever it appears.
