Comment:

 I did a git blame on the line in question and it's one of the original,
 unaltered lines from the WPMU merge, so it was originally a restriction in
 WPMU. Currently in WordPress the title of a blog is stored in a column
 whose size is LONGTEXT, so there doesn't appear to be a need for the
 restriction at least from a storage standpoint.

 Unless someone has a reason for wanting the limit to remain, when a single
 site install of WordPress can have a title > 50 characters as is, I'll
 write a patch to remove this for 4.4.
