[gedit-list] The 79 characters selection limit to prefill the search field

[jpfleury <contact jpfleury net>]

Hi,

I have a question about the Gedit search/replace function. If we do a
selection before doing Ctrl+F or Ctrl+H, the dialog's search field is
prefilled with the selected text, only if it's less than 80 characters.

Is the 79 characters limit a technical restriction or it's just a
default value that can be set differently?

Thanks a lot,

Jean-Philippe
