Description

Is it an issue related to Adaptive Cards?

No.

What is the PWD impact?
User Experience:

Allowing the users to enter the message without any character limit can result in poor user experience. Users typically expect input fields to have validation rules in place to ensure the data they enter is accurate and in the expected format. Allowing invalid input can lead to confusion, errors, and frustration.

Research direction

Start with the web-chat-loader reproduction URL and compare the white-labelled and Copilot input fields with the Fluent UI experience, which does not reproduce the issue. Determine the intended character-limit behavior, then verify the result in Edge with Windows Narrator and confirm that long messages are handled as expected.
