Increase 128 character limit on autocomplete text field? [#1480526]

Hi,

I have a normal text field in a content type of max length 255 char. It is set to "autocomplete for existing field data". If I try to enter more than 128 characters, I am unable to. The cursor just stops. It works fine without the autocomplete widget setting. It doesn't necessarily need to autocomplete after that limit, but the user needs to be able to add extra text. Any help much appreciated.

The attached patch should fix this issue ... anyone want to take it for a spin before I commit? (NOTE: 90% of this patch is removing whitespace where needed)
