Max length in batch edit mode

[miksh]

How to set a max length validation to a DataBound column in the batch edit mode?

E.g. in your demo http://demos.telerik.com/aspnet-ajax/grid/examples/data-editing/batch-editing/defaultcs.aspx if you enter a long product name it will fail with "Product with ID 76 cannot be updated. Reason: String or binary data would be truncated. The statement has been terminated."

I tied to set MaxLength but it doesn't work

<telerik:GridBoundColumn UniqueName="ProductName"
   DataField="ProductName" MaxLength="40"
   HeaderText="Product Name">
</telerik:GridBoundColumn>

I assume by the lack of replies that there is no built-in solution for this using the MaxLength attribute with Batch editing?

I can achieve the client-side functionality by setting a ColumnEditorID for the column and setting the TextBoxMaxLength attribute on the editor, but that obviously isn't an ideal solution for multiple columns with different text lengths.
