Description Tod Creasey

F3

If there are a lot of locales selected the overiew page will also be very wide
and have a large scroll bar. When you switch to the overview page you will also
be scrolled to the end of this large scroll bar.

STEPS
1) Create a feature project
2) Select Languages in the Overview page and select all of them
3) Close the feature manifest
4) Reopen it - it will be very wide and the overview page will be scrolled to
the end

Trivial to fix - one of the four fields in the section needs to be width-
limited so that the computed width of the section is not as wide as needed to 
accomodate content.

F4 candidate analysis

Value: We look bad with a very wide editor - we should not allow the text field 
to grow so stupidly wide
Risk: Low - very localized (width hint in creation of the text field)

Fixed as proposed.
