Comment (by dd32):

 I should also note, I personally feel that even 1,500 is most likely too
 long. I'd argue to less than 1,000 words should be encouraged, as even
 that is getting far too long to read.

 Some of the longer readme plugins could utilise the FAQ section to shift
 some of the content out of the main description. FAQs are not searched,
 which is why (IMHO) we don't see plugins listing their kitchen sink of
 features in there instead.
