This is an improvement, so it's ACKed. There are some other issues, they 
can be done separately:

1. Create an HBAC service with a very long name. Open an HBAC rule, add 
the service, it will widen the table. Same problem with sudo rule.

2. Open the HBAC service you created in #1, the facet header is too long 
it messes up the tabs. The service name here should be trimmed as well.

3. Delete the HBAC service you created in #1 from command line. Reload 
the page in #2, it will pop up an error dialog. The content of the 
dialog should wrap as well.

4. The limit_text() could be useful outside of IPA.facet_header, so it 
can be made an independent function.

5. The limit_text() returns a string up to max_length+3 because of the 
additional '...'. It's better to include the '...' in the calculation so 
the output is not longer than the expected max_length.

6. In widget.js:1104 what are the constants 4 and 14? Can they be combined?
