We're already visually shortening the messages in the console. I don't see any reason that we couldn't shorten the actual string when it's over some arbitrarily large limit. We'd lose the ability to click through to see the page that generated the error, but for this specific case that's probably not a terrible loss.

1. Can you point me at a test result that's currently shockingly large?
2. What's the most performant mechanism to shorten a string? :)
