[quote author="spib" date="1215555404"]Can I ask why this change was made?

Removed maxlength and size as automatically added attributes of form_input() in the form helper.

This is a breaking change for our website[/quote]

It just seemed wrong to force those attributes and their respective values on you. The solutions available to you are both trivial, however, you can either extend the form helper to include those by default, or do a project-wide find and replace to your form_input() usage to place those values there.
