Subject: Take t.co URL lengthe^Wshortening into account when counting message
 length before posting a Twitter message. Disable this functionality by
 default for identi.ca accounts. Hardcode post-t.co URL length to 20 since
 it's probably not going to change any time soon. Bug #855. Patch by Artem
 Savkov, thanks!

+				This setting is disabled for identica accounts by default and will not affect anything other than message safety checks (i.e. Twitter will still replace your URLs with t.co links, even if that makes them longer).
