Appian 7.4, hotfix D, Tempo enabled form: We have a number of process model

Appian 7.4, hotfix D, Tempo enabled form:
We have a number of process models that are using Appian's built in character limit check to prevent form submission when the paragraph fields are greater than 1000 characters. This seemed to work well to prevent database insertion issues for long text. It worked in Portal and we are pretty confident we had it working in Tempo (enabled form) for at least a month in dev/test. However, it appears to not be working now.

I have built a test model and it works as expected in a Portal form, showing a red message: "May not exceed 1000 characters."
When the form is opened in Tempo however, we type more characters and the form can be submitted without any warning or prevention of submission.

Can anyone confirm if this limit works in Tempo enabled forms as I would hope it would (and thought it did before)??

our configuration includes: conf.suite.DATA_CAP_PARAGRAPHS=1000 & conf.suite.ALERT_MESSAGE_LIMIT=1000 ...

This limit does not apply to Tempo forms. If using SAIL forms, this check can be done using validation inputs on the SAIL components. If using Tempo but non-SAIL forms, this would be done via a server-side validation. There is also the option to truncate the text before it reaches the database write.
