This would be a hack, but it might work for you. You will be using css to reorganize your long list of fields into multiple lines. I did this for checkboxes and radiio buttons. It is a hack since I will need to reapply my changes when Jira gets upgraded. If you do not know html/css then find someone that does and have them make the changes. Also do this on a test system first since Jira needs to be stopped and restarted in the methodology that I used.
1) Determine the html tags, ids or classes you need to extend by looking at the html source page or using a html/css inspector tool.
2) Search through all the css files to see if you can find those tags, ids or classes being used. This will help determine which set of *.css files to modify.
2) Use the css float: left comand to cause your html objects to align left
3) Use the css 'clear: left' to cause your next html object to appear on the next line.
In 4.4.3 there are two files <basename>.css and <basename>_min.css. I updated both files since I did not figure out how the <basename>_min.css got generated in the timeframe I had to do the change in.
You will need to stop/start Jira to get the changed *.css files to be picked up and used. You might need to clear your local browser cache as well since somehow the css files are combined into a single css file.
You might need to set some widths as well to get your html objects to align into columns.
