> **(medium)** Flipping `storeCharsAsNumbers` to false for PostgreSQL >= 9
> changes the default mapping for existing applications: char fields previously
> stored in INTEGER columns will now map/validate as CHAR, so schemas created
> by older OpenJPA versions fail validation or read wrongly after an upgrade.
> Intended compatibility break? Should be release-noted and overridable.
