Increase the number of characters allowed in Freeze URI field #16910

Summary

The number of characters allowed in the Freeze URI field (255) is unnecessarily small.

Why is it needed?

The Alias field in the database is 255 characters, but the URI field is TEXT (65,535 characters) for MODX 2 and MEDIUMTEXT (16,777,215 characters) for MODX 3. There are cases where people may want to use very long URLs for specific purposes, and the URI field will accommodate this, so why does the MODX manager use the 255 character limit for the URI field when using the Freeze URI option?

Suggested solution(s)

Increase the allowed number of characters for Freeze URI to something much larger. Perhaps make this number a system setting.
