I would strongly suggest to put "blob style" lab results into
test_result.val_alpha *for now*. This allows for a) status tracking
and b) later rearrange blobs and test results as we see fit.

Ian, do you think it an acceptable solution for now to add a
flag is_blob (or similar) to test_result that can be used by
lab result display code to decide how to use the val_alpha
field ? Or even a field val_alpha_format ? Which could be
ASCII, HTML, etc.
