Comment (by felixxm):
@gopackgo90 After reconsideration I don't think that `MaxLengthValidator`
is really important here since a browser truncates `username` when we set
`maxlength` HTML attribute. This is not a `ModelForm` so we don't risk
`IntegrityError` etc. even if someone send manipulated POST data.
