    Description

      To increase username length from 16 characters to 64 or 128 characters. Included preliminary patch for mariadb 5.5.

      In 5.5 we will not change system tables though. Which means that the user would need to alter system tables manually to use that. A test case (in mysql-test) will have to use ALTER TABLE mysql.user too.

      In 10.0 we'll remove this limitation.
