 Description   

Currently, MySQL/MariaDB allows only 16-character-long user names, which is terribly short. It would be cool to, at least, double it.

Starting from 5.5.31, MariaDB supports usernames up to 80 characters. In 5.5 release line, you need to alter system tables manually. In 10.0, it's 80 characters by default.
