Actually, you need to use strwidth() here.  Plain ol' strlen() will 
overestimate
the size when multibyte characters are involved.  You probably won't suffer 
too much with French, but it will screw the display up pretty badly with
a language like Japanese or Russian.

Agreed.  I think "important" is appropriate.  I'll try to find time to fix this
later if nobody else gets to it first.
