"0" means that the form control will obtain the actual text limit from
the column which it is bound to. "unlimited" would be indicated by "-1".

The question here is: Is the limit in the form control equal to the
length of the underlying database field?

That is, if you have a table column of, say, type VARCHAR(50), is the
text control input length limited to 50 then, or to something else? 50
would be the correct and expected value (it's a feature, not a bug),
everything else would be unexpected and a bug.

Not necessarily, this is for the Ubuntu version of OpenOffice.org, which
is a derivate of "vanilla" OpenOffice.org. So, strictly, the issue would
belong into IssueZilla:
