Now that we support multiple needinfo flags, we also need to increase length of the needinfo field.

Has this been a problem in production? If so, why isn't there a bug for it? How often has this been a problem and is an increase to 80 chars really enough if we're getting many bugs with multiple needinfos?

It hasn't been a problem in production since the feature is not included in any release yet [1] :)
Increasing to 80 chars is plenty, usually there are not more than 3 people in needinfo flag, e.g.:
len('Adam Williamson, Josef Skladanka, Petr Schindler') = 48
So, 80 seems enough to me, do you think we shoud change the value?
"if we're getting many bugs with multiple needinfos"
I don't think I understand what you mean.

No, I just didn't realize that's where this was coming from. If there really aren't any bugs with more needinfo people then we should be fine. However, the first bug we hit with with more than 80 chars of needinfo people would cause problems during sync, no? If that's the case, unless we have proof that it can't be more than 80 chars, I'd rather have something like 1024 just to be really safe.
