I too would prefer the warning to be kept (with a configurable lower limit, off
by default) for policy warnings. (Guillaume: at least on enwiki, the warning
does have useful content, but it is hidden with parser function constructs
unless you view it on a page that is over 70K or so.)

As for backwards and mobile compatibility, a capability check in the strict
sense (actually performing POST requests) is not an option; the server could
send the page size instead and the browser could send it back, and both could
make a sanity check based on that, but the server counts in bytes and the
browser in characters, and converting between the two is probably slow.
Alternatively, the browser could attach some unique string to the end and the
server check for it, but that only works if the text is truncated on posting
and not on populating the textbox, and I would expect the opposite to be true.
