Long query strings (for example) are (for some people) silently truncated.
Other people have seen large amounts of whitespace inserted at word boundaries.
These issues are caused by using a multiline text field. This patch uses a
single-line dynamically growable textfield instead. It also disables the
field-blanking misfeature.
