   Thank you for your suggestion! We have this on the roadmap, however not limited to LongString properties. As the regular string supports up to 255 chars it applies to this type as well.

   Adding my vote to this. Our client was shocked that this wasn't an option. We've had to make all plain-text multi-line description fields into XHTML types, which is very confusing to the content editors and potentially can cause data problems if the editors use any of the WYSIWYG buttons. Also complicates the front-end that has to parse this HTML into plain strings.
