Databases: lastname in table mdl_user too short to store 2 last long names

In Spain and in many latin-americans countrries they use two or more names as the last names. So in only 20 characters some very long names don't fit.
I can change the type of lastname in the Moodle database from varchar(20) to varchar(45), but in the PHP code there's a lot of checks (that is a good thing) to limit the input to 20.
So there's any plan to increase this value?
I only need to change the code where you modify the user parameters or there are others parts of the code that must be changed?

Thanks in advance.
