Clearly the fact the the Comment field is just a single line is not enough hint that people shouldn't post long text into it. If the text is longer than some reasonable length (my current suggestion would be 500 characters), let's display some warning (orange?) text below the field, asking the user to file a bug instead, or at least use some pastebin service (with no expiration time) for providing log output and similar blobs of text.
