user-accounts: ellipsize long user names in the password dialog (1.12 KB, patch)
2013-04-26 15:52 UTC, Thomas Wood 		committed Details | Review

Description Thomas Wood 2013-04-26 15:52:10 UTC 
This patch ellipsizes the user name label, at least for 3.8. If the password
dialog redesign is imminent for 3.10, then this patch probably doesn't need
to be applied to master.

Where's this value coming from?

This is the same value for this field that also appears in user-accounts-dialog.ui.
