I have have a field of type container that is acting as a title field, see complete definintion below.
My issue is that I cannot seem to modify the title or description via form_alter, I have tried the following approaches:
$form['title_field'][$language->language][0]['#title'] = $form['title_field'][$language->language][0]['#title'] . t(' (maximum @max characters)', array( '@max' => $maximum_program_title_limit));
And also:
$form['title_field'][LANGUAGE_NONE][0]['#title'] = $form['title_field'][LANGUAGE_NONE][0]['#title'] . t(' (maximum @max characters)', array( '@max' => $maximum_program_title_limit));
I tried both "language" options, and also tried at one higher level of the array:
$form['title_field'][LANGUAGE_NONE]['#title'] = $form['title_field'][LANGUAGE_NONE]['#title'] . t(' (maximum @max characters)', array( '@max' => $maximum_program_title_limit));
None of these take effect on the form, although other changes are actually done on the form in this same function.

I would like to know what is missing for this form_alter to work as should?
$form['title_field'][LANGUAGE_NONE][0]['value']['#title']or$form['title_field'][LANGUAGE_NONE]['value']['#title'](I never remember which 'til I get there)
