Comment:
Just saw your comment, Russell. I changed the wording when I redid it to
the following before seeing your comment:
Incompliance to RFCs
The default value of max_length is not compliant with RFCs 3696 and 5321.
It is suggested that new projects override the max_length to 254
characters, as this would be capable of storing all email addresses as
defined by RFCs 3696 and 5321.
The default value is not being changed at this time to maintain backward
compatibility with previous versions of Django.
