The fact that
the keyspace of MD5 is only 128 bits does limit the
password strength, but who's using a password more than 13 characters

I think the limiting factor in password length in MediaWiki is how
large a POST the server is willing to accept. ;) I once tried a
password on my local install thousands of pages long, just for the
heck of it, and it worked fine.
And could you remember it the next time you tried to log in? :-)
