[QGIS-Developer] Unabbreviated expression evaluation preview?

Hi list,

when developing QGIS expression the preview string output of the 
evaluation at the bottom of the dialog (e. g. Field Calculator) is super 
helpful. But it gets cut off after ~60 characters so for longer returns 
you cannot see them fully.

Is there an important reason for that cutoff or would it theoretically 
be possible to display the whole return value (e. g. in a scrollable 
area if needed)? Maybe that would require a safety limit at a couple of 
thousand characters but it would allow for more insight.

Cheers
Hannes
