Trimming too long keywords client side is the wrong solution to the problem of having keywords that are too long.

Because keywords change sporadically, it's much better to edit the localization source on the GlotPress end.

And even better long term fix would be to add a character limit to GlotPress. I don't know how to do that know but I'll get in touch with folks that might help with that.

I'd like to leave this as a draft until the matter is addressed at the root. See pxLjZ-6mD. Just in case I need to trim them again when it comes time for the next submission 🙉
