I don't think this particular code path exists in the Qt UI but there might be
other places where we pass unsanitized strings to QMessageBox. Either way, I
just tried adding

    QMessageBox mb;
    QString ls;
    ls.fill('a', 50000);
    mb.setText(ls);
    mb.setInformativeText(ls);
    mb.exec();

to the MainWelcome constructor and got a message box about half the screen
width. The 'a's were simply truncated.
