Description

TCA for 1-line input fields:
"myfield" => Array (
"label" => 'whatever',
"config" => Array (
"type" => "input",
"size" => "6",
"max" => "6", // this works ok
)
),

TCA for multi-line input fields:
"myfield" => Array (
"label" => 'whatever',
"config" => Array (
"type" => "text",
"cols" => "30",
"rows" => "6",
"max" => "250", // this feature is missing
)
),

I would appreciate this feature, because I use small fields (150 chars) for meta descriptions tags. Since there is no check, I can enter more chars than allowed, leading to the error message "fields not properly updated". I understand this error message, but it confuses my customers.

Thank you guys for keeping up the good work on TYPO3!!!
