> If you create a portlet that supports EDIT mode and a logged-in user edits a preference, if the value they put in has more than 255 chars, an error occurs.  This is because the table that saves user preference values (jbp_user_pref_value) has a column called 'jbp_value' that is defined as 'VARCHAR(255)'.
> I don't know if the portlet spec defines how many characters are allowed in a preference value, but 255 characters seems small for some portlets.
