ccmake cuts off option names arbitrarily

When you run ccmake (v 3.19.4 in my case), it cuts off cached value names after a certain number of characters, even when your terminal screen could afford a lot more columns to them, and even considering the need to reserve columns for the values. Example:

Is it because the default value is fixed hard? If that's the case, I suggest it be changed to some fraction of the terminal width (or max(hard_coded_minimum, get_terminal_width() * cached_value_name_fraction)).
