Sometimes, you don't control the values of your labels (e.g. visualizing data from a third-party system), and having 2000+ characters labels in your view is not very nice.
I originally hit this issue in the context of the graph view while visualizing Bevy's internals, but the issue is broader than that -- it's true for all views.
Truncating on the logging side is a big no-no for obvious reason (the data is always right), so what I would like is a view setting that allows me truncate displayed labels beyond a certain number of graphemes.
This of course wouldn't impact the selection panel, which always makes it possible to view the non-truncated data.
