could be changed to description, but then the "Help" button (e.g. on Windows) will be pushed out of view.

Should the preference values which controls the width/height get increased?

Too late for firefox 52, mass-wontfix.

Forwarding the request to Johann as he recently worked in this area, we recently discussed it, and I'm unlikely to work on this soon. This may be a good bug to mentor.

[Johann Hofmann [:johannh]]

Yeah this could be a good next bug for someone to pick up (probably needs some additional fiddling after comment 1). I don't think, however, that any staff will work on this, so I'm marking it P5.

This only happens on Windows, right?

On Mac the window automatically resizes to a larger width so that nothing is cut, so you can't get a similar screenshot, but the underlying problem is there too: this long line with the cipher name should wrap.
