advices!
It seems indeed more complex that I naively thought, but I'll try to
make the changes you advised soon, keeping track of everything so
Search around for '255' appearing in .php, .inc, or .js files and change the
checks to 1023. [...]
Should someone maybe define a constant Title::MAX_LENGTH instead of hard-coding
