I believe this was added because the initial table creation for a new UDF field was using varchar(16) and so I added some input validation to keep errors from happening when names were too long. also, the "name" of a UDF is turned into a new mysql table and has a prefix added to it (udftbl_) to ensure that other existing tables don't get overwritten. So this limits the name size.
I just checked the limits on table names and it looks like they can be up to 64 characters in length (minus the udf prefix of "udftbl_"). I will put this in as a feature request in our bug tracker.
Thanks.
