Function takes two arguments, the text to be truncated and the max
lenght. Last three characters will be replaced by "...". Mbox and MPD
widgets that previously did it them selves are now using this helper.
It is simillar to the awful.util.escape now, using a table which we
could expand (and rename) with other unwated characters if it comes to
that. I saw awesome break on many occasions because of encoding
problems.
