It is a good solution to work around the blob issues in all databases, but this will split content data to 2 locations. Keeping data and backups in sync is more complex. Another problem is that you have to deal with filesystem specific issues. This is less problematic in java then all the jdbc blob implemtations. I am questioning which is a better longterm solution.
Good to know that this is in the storage classes.

My solution was to forget about the whole issue and switched on 'blobdatadir' in my postgresql.xml, which works fine, I think.
