For, e.g.:

<input type="button" title="some text">

If the title attribute is longer than a certain number of characters (50?), the
text displayed when hovering over the button is truncated and terminated with an
ellipsis. I hate to say it, but IE displays it wrapping in a multiline area
which is much nicer. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
As in the description.


Expected Results:  
Should have displayed it as multiline text instead.
