I think, that this should be kept as implementation dependent. There 
exist several ways application handle overflow and I do not want to 
force one kind. E.g. Excel has a multi-line input field with scroll bar, 
TextMaker has an overflow indicator which the user can decide to enable 
or not, Gnumeric and LibreOffice have always overflow indicator, 
Calligra has a PopUp with the content and … character in case of too 
many text.

Kind regards
Regina
