Comment (by stbenjam):
Not sure I understand your suggestion to use the erratum ID - we already
store this, but we're not going to drop the title in favor of display the
ID to users. We need a useful title, it's displayed in Katello and Pulp
UI/CLI, email reports, etc.
For Red Hat itself, we don't find they've ever issued an errata with a
title longer than 255, so I think it would make sense to set some kind of
standard for the length upstream.
In the interim is there any way for us to get the existing errata in
updateinfo.xml to have the right length - would it take issuing updates
for each erratum in Bodhi?
