Description
I don't know how to explain the feature that I want. This example can help.
I have a text:
"My name is Stefano and I'm from Uruguay."
And I want to show:
"My name is Stefano...
...and I'm from Uruguay"
I'm using truncatewords for the first line.

I've found the solution: {{ my_text.split|slice:'4:'|join:' ' }}
But it would be great to have a filter like 'truncatewords' for this.
