Make automatic cuts in feeds

Title:
Make automatic cuts in feeds

Area:
Feeds

Summary:
Make it possible to force cuts in feeds (or other entries, but feeds in particular)

Description:
I've been consolidating my feeds on DW, and while some of them (e.g. http://alistapart-feed.dreamwidth.org/ ) use excerpts for their feeds, others (e.g. http://smashing-feed.dreamwidth.org/) do not. I know that the difference is in the way they've set up their feeds, but I'd like to be able to force cut tags for certain journals, or for a class of journals such as feeds.
