Custom statuses’ names longer than 20 chars

Hi everyone!
I would like to add longer names for the costum statuses.

I’ve already tried different ways
– Directly from the Sql database editing the Terms table
– Editing custom-status.php (plugins/edit-flow/modules/custom-status/) to extend the limit to 35 chars

I did manage to increase the max chars in the custom statuses.php, by editing lines 766, 833, 1029, 1228, 1871, and everything seems to work.
But both if I edit the database or the php file i end up not able to switch to the statuses with a name longer than 20 chars.

In the post edit screen i can select them, click “save as custom status longer than 20 chars” and click it, but nothing gets saved.

Am I missing something?
Can someone help?

Thanks a lot for reading, i hope my english was not to bad.
