            Reduce the length of <headline> values to 140 characters.

            (To support internationalization it might be helpful also to reference Unicode Normalization Form C per http://unicode.org/reports/tr15/ for information on how non-Latin characters get mapped to UTF-8 in Twitter.)

            Description

            The <headline> element was specified with SMS in mind. Since then, however, Twitter has created a de-facto global standard of 140 UTF-8 characters for short text messages.
