 I'm not sure if this should be done Server-side, or client side, But i
 think it'd be a good idea to limit the short description length of plugins
 displayed on the Search results pages.

 Currently for example, if you search by tag for "content" you'll see what
 i mean, A few plugins which are drastically longer than the others, It
 makes it much harder to browse through them.. And if the user is
 interested from the short description, they can click through to view the
 full length version.

 Thoughts?
