Re: [bp-i18n-specdev] Rewrite the character introduction (#153)

I may make detailed review of the truncation section later, but in the meantime here are some thoughts.

Truncation may be applied because (a) there's a limit to the size of stored strings, (b) there's a limit to what is visible on the UI.  These different issues are mentioned in the text, but don't (from a rapid scan) appear to be clearly distinguished and addressed.

Note to self: In addition to the impact of code unit limits on text size (example 17), there is the potential issue of text expansion, which may push useful bits of information out of the viewing window; and the issue of sentence syntax, which may have the same effect in languages like Hindi or Japanese, which move the verb to the end of the sentence.  Do we mention those?
