Enable Word Limits in Text Fields

Description - We have a need to show and enforce a word limit at the custom form level on text fields. The use case for this is an automation we are building to send a content fragment (e.g., a paragraph) to another system (e.g., Seismic) for input into a piece of content (e.g., a PowerPoint)

 

Why is this feature important to you - This will enable the automations we are building between Workfront and other systems to assemble pieces of content with limited manual input. Without a word limit, users who are unaware of the limit will have to spend time rewriting content, which hinders the efficiency we are trying to create.

 

How would you like the feature to work - As stated in description.

 

Current Behaviour - No word limit is shown or enforced anywhere in Workfront to my understanding.

Word / character limit feels like a pretty easy add - agree with others would be useful. Lets make it happen!
