I though that there were absolutely no limits in length with a varchar
that has no limit specifier.
The varchar type is the ideal field for a memo. It take only the
required length and the overhead is not big. There are also no known
speed issues on the DB side when working with this type - I asked
postgres people for that since in many DB there is a speed issue when
using that kind of fields.
