Exposed filter for a string has a maximum of 128 characters

The exposed filter for a string has a maximum of 128 characters, this should be unlimited since the value searching for might have a length up to an infinity number of characters (in theory offcourse :-) ).

The restriction can be removed by editing views/handlers/views_handler_filter_string.inc line 180:

      $form['value'] = array(
        '#type' => 'textfield',
        '#title' => t('Value'),
        '#size' => 30,
        '#default_value' => $this->value,
      );

Should be:

      $form['value'] = array(
        '#type' => 'textfield',
        '#title' => t('Value'),
        '#size' => 30,
        '#default_value' => $this->value,
        '#maxlength' => null,
      );
