We do sensible line breaking now and we can make the popup higher, but at
the last sprint we said we want the popups to be of unified height. Say we
would make it higher, where do we stop? Display the whole content? That can
easily span across your whole screen (which is the case with colibri btw)
when eg. someone sends you really long message in KTp :)

Therefore, I left it truncated. Plus you should have a way to react on
notifications (which we have) so if it's truncated (like long KTp message),
you should just open the message and read it in the app, the notification
should just be that, a notification of a new message.
