Almost all EU banks allow longer PINs.

And, in fact, our cash machines handle their cards just fine and ask for 6-or-more digit PINs.

It's just the UK that's stupid and doesn't ask it's users to set longer ones. The capability is already in all our ATMs and in daily use by thousands of foreigner with 6-8 digit PINs.
