Adding tags that are extremely lengthy can cause issues with application load and potentially GUI break #106

Open nus-pe-bot opened 3 years ago

nus-pe-bot commented 3 years ago

Command Used: addTag 2 at/22222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222222...

Expected Result: Some limit on tag description length so as to not allow tags that are too lengthy.

Observed Result: The tag was still added.

Description: Adding a tag of enormous/ unreasonable length could potentially cause issues when loading / saving the application depending on the OS and other system variables. It also does not look good on the very nice GUI.

Scenario: A user's key could get stuck and repeat multiple inputs.. An object could drop unto the keyboard cause the large input.

Team's Response

This is an extreme case as the user would not usually add such a long tag, but we agree that a limit to the length could be implemented.
