Today I was giving a Pharo demo, using a slightly larger than standard  
font.

When I tried to commit a change, the prompt for my user name was  
bigger than the available screen space on my laptop.  Luckily I could  
still type, though I could not see what I was typing.

Can we please modify Author>>messagePrompt to use a *short* message?   
The existing one is ridiculously large.

Author>>messagePrompt
        ^
'Please type your name. It will be used to sign the changes you make  
to the image.
Try to write an ASCII approximation of your name with only alphabetic  
characters
and avoiding, if possible, spaces, accents, dashes and similar  
characters.
Examples (The prefered form is the first one of each name):

Miguel Cobá -> MiguelCoba
Miguel Cobá -> miguel.coba
Miguel Cobá -> miguel_coba
Göran Krampe -> GoranKrampe
Göran Krampe -> GoeranKrampe
Göran Krampe -> goran.krampe
Göran Krampe -> goran_krampe
Vincent van Gogh -> VincentVanGogh
Stéphane DUCASSE -> StephaneDucasse
Stéphane DUCASSE -> stephane.ducasse
Yoshiki Oshima -> YoshikiOshima
Yoshiki Oshima -> yoshiki.oshima
'

The first example would be good enough.
