Comment(by dd32):

 > attachment 9576.diff added
  * Based off wp_html_excerpt()
  * Strips HTML
  * Limits to 400char (multibyte safe), and adds an horizontal ellipsis(…)
 if its shortened
    * Doesnt use mb_strlen(), So its not entirely mb nice, any mb strings
 of > 200char & < 400char will end up with an ellipsis when its not needed
 - WordPress doesnt currently have a compat function for it.
  * Finally, re-converts multiple lines
    * And strips consecutive lines/leading/trailing lines
