Increase Character limits for custom form fields

Right now, the text fields for Custom Forms are capped at 2,000. It would be great to increase that for larger thoughts (such as marketing strategy for a campaign, or debriefing results of a campaign). It would be even greater if there were options in the custom form field set up to select the character limit so Sys Admins could control that (similarly to how we can select field width).

We have also encountered this issue especially with large, involved projects.

This is an issue for us as well. We have forms that require a lot of information and the only workaround has been to create multiple fields, which is not ideal for many reasons.

It's an issue for us as well. Why limit it?

I saw this request elsewhere (https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360010501294-Definable-character-limits-for-custom-fields). Even so, I upvoted there and here as well!

We have experienced this issue as well for marketing briefs.
