Comment (by jeremyfelt):

 In [changeset:"33083"]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="33083"
 Usernames in multisite should be restricted to 60 characters or fewer.

 Only 60 characters can be stored in the database for a username, which
 could cause lookup issues when attempting to use similar usernames of
 extreme length.

 Props @DJPaul.
 See #17904, Fixes #26784.
