Sorry for the long delay!  I was caught up in non-MediaWiki stuff for the last
couple of weeks and didn't have time to look at this.  I've reviewed the patch,
and I agree with Arod that it's very jarring.  Try typing out to almost full
length, then inserting some multibyte characters in the middle . . . everything
jumps around and stuff is removed from the end.

Maybe his suggested approach would work better.  I'd be happy to review further
patches, hopefully more expeditiously than I reviewed this one.

Also, another thing -- it's probably best to keep the maxlength at 200, and
only change it in JavaScript.  This way, if JavaScript is disabled, you don't
have a regression for users of Latin languages that use only a few multibyte
characters.
