Configuring ExternalFileAccess with Restrict in v.2.5.4 SS on Win7 doesn't seem

not to work as documented in firebird.conf.

All,
I'm trying (or it is trying!) to do the release notes for RC1. Several
"improvements" regarding what's legal for user names and passwords are flagged
in WhatsNew but apparently there is no documentation describing what, why or
how.
All I can conclude from reading through the descriptions
Flagged as an improvement in RC1:
core-4881 "Increase maximum string literal length to 64K (bytes) while setting
a lower limit (of characters) for multibyte charsets based on their max char.
length (UTF-8 literals will be limited to 16383 characters)"
1. Can a string literal really be 64Kb if,
The new FBLangref 25 says RDB$VIEW_RELATIONS is not used in current versions.
As Mark R. has pointed in his review (and as I meant to ask before, and forgot
to!) it clearly *is* used or, at least, populated when a view is created.
What's the back-story?
