I've used a string field to keep certain info, and it works just fine, but I've just noticed that the strings I ended up saving in this field were around 1,000 characters long, sometimes even closer to 2,000. According to the docs, the default limit for a string field is 512. The limit doesn't seem to be a problem now, so I am wondering what's the nature of the limit. Is it safe to use longer strings because DAL handles them somehow? Or I'm just lucky at the moment, and should increase the size or switch to a text field? (I am still developing, so using sqlite for the time being)
