When using a value relation widget in a form, character strings in the drop-down list won't wrap if too long for the width of the pop-up window. I'll venture to guess it's by design to minimize the length of the list, but it may cause issues when trying to select the right feature.
Reproduction steps
Create a form on any layer with a value relation widget
Setup the source layer for the widget with long strings in value column
Open form an try to fill
Expected behavior
Text wrapping instead of being clipped by the edge of the pop-up window.
Observed behavior
Strings clipped (see below).

OS: Windows 10
QGIS 3.30.2
Project was copied onto mobile device through windows explorer

Additional information
Problem started happening recently, didn't happen in an older version of QField: No
Problem can be reliably reproduced, doesn't happen randomly: Yes
Problem happens with all files and projects, not only some files or projects: Yes
As mentioned, I am aware string wrapping could cause the scroll-down list to be too long. A good solution would be to have QField considers actual breaks in the strings and show them, as QGIS is able to do:
It's easy enough to add spacers to separate the strings in the interface, although unnecessary since there are lines between each of them on QField (see first screenshot).
