In (at least) iOS Safari, converting a long Text (over 65536 chars) to a JS string fails due to
apply
ing a large array as function arguments toString.fromCharCode
; see https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=80797.This breaks the array up into chunks that fit under this limit, concatenating the strings as it goes.
A quick search says there might be a few more
String.fromCharCode.apply
calls nearby with the same issue, but this patch successfully fixed the conversion for me.
