Long summaries really clutter up recent changes. I think it would be best if after a certain number of characters for a specific entry was reached, the comments either would be cut off, or wouldn't be shown at all. For example, 00:00 Looooooooooooong Naaaaaame (diff; hist) . . Ussssssssserrrrrrrrname (Talk) (blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaber) Would just show as: > 00:00 Looooooooooooong Naaaaaame (diff; hist) . . Ussssssssserrrrrrrrname (Talk) (bla...) or > 00:00 Looooooooooooong Naaaaaame (diff; hist) . . Ussssssssserrrrrrrrname (Talk) (...) And clicking the toggle flag would show the entire entry with the whole summary. I realize that this may annoy people, but RC is becoming really cluttered. The interface needs to be improved to get back some usability.
I don't think we're likely to do this, so I'm going to WONTFIX it. A JavaScript goodie to do it would be pretty easy to add as a custom option though.
