To use e-mail as login, write your own backend (about four lines of
code). You'll be using the 'email' field, not username, because username
isn't long enough.

You can not make username not unique if you're using
contrib.auth.models.User, but you can populate it with whatever junk you
want because you won't be using it for anything else.
