I would prefer to set this to a more flexible standard - for example, the Django team use a line limit of 119 for code and 79 for documentation, comments and docstrings.
There are a lot of places in the codebase that could benefit from better formatting made possible by a longer line length.
Flake 8 is currently causing the CI tests to fail when the line is too long by one character. See: https://travis-ci.org/nlhkabu/connect/jobs/65816246
