I'm pretty sure being able to input text longer than the maximum allowable text into a field breaks user's expectations too. Users don't "win" because you made how a site works more confusing. Their justification for this change is the only user-win (password truncation), and they could have trivially restricted this to passwords then body is hurt.

Users don't expect the length limit! that info isnt presented to them until the text is over-long and the clue is: Surprise! Truncate w/o warning. On more than just password fields.
