hide long summaries through Enhanced recent changes toggle

Description

Author: slowpoke

Description:
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.

bzimport added a subscriber: Unknown Object (MLST).

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.
