Comment (by adamchainz):
We use utf8mb4 in production at YPlan just fine - we enable
{{{innodb_large_prefix}}}, and use {{{ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC}}} or
{{{ROW_FORMAT=COMPRESSED}}} on all tables, allowing the long indexes.
However mandating this of all Django apps would be difficult - not
everyone can change their DB config, and migrations don't currently allow
{{{ROW_FORMAT}}} to be set and MySQL unfortunately doesn't let you set a
default.
