How to set an unlimited size for a url field for a Basic Asset?

"You can specify an unlimited size for a url field that is edited via a TEXTAREA field by not specifying a value for the MAXLENGTH parameter."

"The text you have entered in the {basic_asset}:url(somename) field is too long. The text will be truncated to Variables.maxlength characters."
