Comment (by boonebgorges):

 The JS that updates the header takes the update content directly from the
 AJAX response (which truncates to 358 characters), while on refresh it
 comes from bp_activity_latest_update() (which truncates to 180). Ideally,
 I'd be able to modify the JS to obey the 180 number. But because our AJAX
 handler bp_dtheme_post_update() returns HTML rather than structured data,
 this is nigh impossible. I either write a JS-equivalent of
 bp_create_excerpt(), or I rewrite the activity posting to return JSON data
 and then build the HTML in JS, or I make another AJAX call to get the
 shorter excerpt. All three of these options seem lousy, so I'm just going
 to change the default in bp_activity_latest_update().
