  I actually do need more than 8.  You see our logins are often used in
conjunction with e-mail 1st initial and last name... In my case that's
11 letters.  One guy at work has a 16 letter last name.  So yes without
being unreasonable the 8 letter limit does cause some problems. I wish I
knew how to get past the limit myself.  Although everything I've tried
hasn't worked.  (Nor have I tried that hard yet)
