Maximum number of characters per line
My suggestion is to remove "Maximum number of characters" completely, as I don't see how it can be useful in any way, and implement "Maximum number of characters per line" instead. That's the parameter that translators rely on the most. The default value could be 40.
For instance, currently you can have 60 characters in one line and 19 in the other (assuming the default of 80 characters is set), and it won't trigger the error check.
