password limits are not necessary, due to the fact that the password will be hashed before storing. the length of 255 chars should be long enough for every user and it fits in the password field if any crazy admin wants to store them in plain text. if the application ensures that passwords can not be stored in plain text, the limit can be removed.

users want to set longer passwords and there is no reason why a password
which is stored as hash is limited. the length of 255 chars should be
long enough for every user and it fits in the password field if any crazy
admin wants to store them in plain text
