Comment:
Firstly, EmailField accepts a max_length argument, so you can set your
email fields to be as long as you like.
Secondly, while I agree that 75 characters isn't strictly standards
compliant, it isn't something we can change easily. Changing max_length
would be backwards incompatible for every existing installation of Django.
So - when we start having v2.0 discussions, this is one of the backwards
incompatible changes will can consider. In the interim, use the max_length
argument.
I'm closing this ticket because we don't really have a good way to track
'things we need to do for v2.0'.
