I don't think that follows. A tsearch index is lossy anyway, so there's
no hard and fast reason why it should reject entries that it can't index
completely. I think it would be more useful to index whatever it can
(probably just the words in the first N bytes of the document) than to
prevent you from storing the document.
There is another precedent too, namely that tsearch already discards
individual words over so-many-bytes long. If it doesn't throw an error
for that case, why is it throwing an error for this one?
