In fact the truncation here is at 100, not 60 characters. Still, this is totally unnecessary with modern wide displays and usual screen resolutions. The truncation should be completely removed or set to the field's max length.

Fixed in r15858. I've preserved the call to #format_activity_title and changed its behaviour.
