When using mailto tag, if message body is > 1500 characters, warn of potential issues (see issue #97) #101

Consider presenting modal when mailto body is > 1500 characters. Include a "Don't warn me again." checkbox that is stored as persistent cookie. That way for browsers/platforms that do not exhibit the issue, users can click the checkbox to suppress. Might need a way to later turn off the checkbox.

Another approach is to have Javascript check user agent and present modal only if on browser/platform that exhibits the problem. Less appealing because developers have to test all browser/OS combinations (as new versions released) and update code.

We now rely on user copy+paste to send emails. This problem is no longer an issue.
