Comment (by afercia):

 Discussed this during
 [https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/accessibility/p1455654295000286
 today's a11y bugscrub on Slack] and considering also the Revisions UI is
 going under a redesign process, our proposal would be to completely remove
 this info from the Publish box. @ryan's point is a very good argument:
 this text warns users about something they can't change because there's no
 control exposed in the UI for that.

 In order to correctly inform users about what this limit exactly is, how
 they can change it editing `wp-config.php`, etc., there's the need of a
 more detailed, longer, explanation, and the Publish box is not the right
 place for this. The Revisions screen is probably a better place, we'd
 recommend to take this into consideration during the redesign process.

 New patch coming soon.
