What is wrong with BIGINT? Are you looking to have your database do
constraint checking on your data?

I think this came up a while ago, but the lack of unsigned integers
has been bugging me. I know there is or will be a way to do pluggable
types in Drizzle but until then, for applications that rely on using
unsigned INT for IPs, the only work-around I can think of is to use a
BIGINT. Which is too big for an IPv4 but not big enough for IPv6.
AAAH! :)
Thoughts on some ways around that? I fear people will do the naughty
and start storing IPs as varchars which is quite slow by comparison.
