The error dialog that Briefcase uses doesn't wrap text and so is not user friendly...

In ServerConnectionDialog.java something like this would work...

      if ( isSuccessful ) {
        serverInfo = info;
        this.setVisible(false);
      } else {

          JTextArea textArea = new JTextArea(errorString);
          textArea.setColumns(30);
          textArea.setLineWrap(true);
          textArea.setWrapStyleWord(true);
          textArea.setBackground(new Color(0, 0, 0, 0));
          textArea.setSize(textArea.getPreferredSize().width, 1);

        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, textArea, "Server error",
            JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
        okButton.setEnabled(true);
        cancelButton.setEnabled(true);
      }

Fix is in the tree. Will be in the next Briefcase release.
