When clicking on a link tag on a profile to be able to copy it, the input dialog displayed might truncate links if they are too long.
What was said after the first report on Discord :
Basically one of your addon is using the standard "input text dialog" and set a max length for what can be put inside the text input
But the game doesn't clear the max length (anymore?) when the next addon use the same dialog again
We will probably switch from the default dialog to a custom one so we are no longer impacted by other addons behavior or Blizzard shenanigans.
To be completely future proof, the best solution would be to design our own pop-up for copy-pasting link. It would also allow for more customization (having the URL appear on multiple lines so more of the URL is visible to the user).
For now the quick fix will be to override the character limit every time the game's pop-up is shown.
