Max length of Display Name too short

The maximum length of the Display Name is only 15 characters. This does not even fit my normal name 'Johan Hakkesteegt'.

It is called the Display Name, but it appears to be a technical user name. That is the only reason I can think of why you cannot even use spaces, let alone actually special characters. The last time I saw this type of restriction was on a software from 1998.

For the sake of everyone who's name is not JS123, can this be extended? 30 characters for example?

And for the sake of everyone who is a living breathing human being, can we do away with some of the restrictions for the Display Name? I can understand that you cannot allow # @ / \ and such, but a space... really?
