In fact, I had it in there at one point as part of validation. Then I removed validation to focus the plugin more on it's core object: providing a character counter. I am definitely going to re-add it and will try to do so in the next couple of days. I have not had a lot of time lately to provide support for this plugin, which is still in beta. I'm very glad for your interest and I will have more time soon. @charlie,

Even though it shows a negative value it's very easy for the user to miss that they have typed over the limit. It would be helpful to then set a class that for example sets the negative number to red. The class would obviously have to be removed if the user deletes text and the counter goes above zero.

By specifying a label, you can add a label next to the field that is dynamically replaced by the character counter when the user clicks on the field.
