FWIW I agree with Florian: - Where the default is unsuitable for a project, it's easier to restrict the field's length in forms than to increase it in the User model. - It's hard to imagine a situation where a 100-character limit is suitable but a 150-character limit isn't. - I can imagine myself as a new user wasting cycles wondering what the reason behind the different field lengths is, so I imagine others might too.
