This ellipsis was there before we started working on this code,
but was never working properly.
We understand that the CSS was intentionally done like this (as
the comment explains). However:
* We changed the width of the dialog. The old value doesn't
match any more.
* The width is different when the sidebar is expanded vs. when
it is collapsed. Even if we update the number, it won't
always work.
* The 100% work fine in current browsers. I can only assume
this was different back in 2014 when this CSS was written
(see Ia8259e9).

The MWParameterSearchWidget that shows a list of all available
template parameters displays the (human-readable) label and
description of each parameter (both given via <templatedata>), as
well as the parameter's internal name and aliases, if there are
any.
This turns out to be non-helpful in the majority of situations:
* When there is no <templatedata> yet, there are no labels.
Instead, the names are used as labels, which means they are
*all* identical and everything is shown twice.
* The same happens when manually adding an "unknown field". Simply
start typing, and you can add parameters with any name. What you
type is shown twice (actually 3 times, 1 time in the input
field, 2 times in the result widget).
* Many template parameters are already nice, human-readable. Even
if <templatedata> exists and specifies labels, these labels are
often identical to the names. There is no need to come up with
something else if the name is already good enough. (Exception:
Localizations, but these are rare.)
Furthermore, this is a *search* result widget. The pretty much
only reason the names and aliases are shown is because the user
can search for them, and needs to understand why a parameter was
found. This still works fine.
For comparison, when a parameter is required you will *never* see
it's name, because the parameter is always there, and never shows
up as a search result.

* Move description to a popup behind a little info icon button
* Make required indicator generic status indicator (required/deprecated)
and move to left of the field
* Move param name and actions to above the field
* Show deprecated status and description
Bonus:
* Use auto-focus on CitationDialog (whoops!)
* Make pages that aren't meant to scroll not scroll (whoops again!?)
