-----------------------------------------------------------
[[email protected]] Char type is different obviously with others, field length
has been explictly configured in the type definition by users, and others not.
the current behavior is confusing users. maybe we can help users to configure
it as you pointed automaticly.

besides, the following results show that the behavior has made wrong data in
the downstream tables.
