[Answer]-Username still too long, despite defining custom field

1👍

I aborted this method and just manually wrote a migration to modify the database directly:

class Migration(SchemaMigration):

    def forwards(self, orm):
        db.alter_column(u'app_myuser', 'username', self.gf('django.db.models.fields.CharField')(unique=True,max_length=75))

    def backwards(self, orm):
        db.alter_column(u'app_myuser', 'username', self.gf('django.db.models.fields.CharField')(unique=True,max_length=30))

Much simpler.
