Html with >65k input field

Safari and Chrome incorrectly render text fields that have more than 65,535 characters.  Only the first (length mod 2^16) characters are rendered and are editable.  However, when there are 2^16 or more characters in a text field, they are all properly sent to the server on submit.  The attached test case demonstrates this problem.
