   <description>A number of places where we currently use TEXT fields in database tables don&#039;t really need BLOB-size data size - horde_perms.perm_data for example. With MySQL 5, VARCHARs can be nearly 64k, which is plenty, and per http://arjen-lentz.livejournal.com/126316.html, will prevent some temp table usage which will speed up permissions queries. We should create db-specific fields that make use of that - .mysql5.sql for example - for relevant databases.</description>
