There's definitely something keeping the URL Title and Structure URL fields from being auto-filled to the full length. I changed the field_maxl variables as you suggested - the maxlength parameters on the HTML input reflects that change, and you can manually type the longer title, but the autofill stops at the original, shorter length. The weird thing is my web inspector shows no event listeners on those input fields, but I could be doing it wrong.

@Brian, the maxlength attribute does not seem to be hardcoded in 2.5.3, and will use whatever value is entered for field_maxl in the url_title and title arrays that Ryan mentioned. But I think there might be another step needed (not sure what) to allow for the url_title to go past 75 chars, though.
