Does this work with mysql utf8mb4?

For MySQL utf8mb4 encoding does email max length need to be changed to 191 instead of 254?

Seems django team is still debating this (https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/18392#comment:26) but django-allauth uses a setting EMAIL_MAX_LENGTH, see https://github.com/pennersr/django-allauth/blob/7e27fd995cacea1e03bee811ba588305ae3c76f2/allauth/account/models.py#L28 , which allows to to easily use utf8mb4 now without changing the db configuration to allow for longer indexes.
