There's a middle ground between Bob and Joe here. Bob was thinking of a
BLOB field, not a character field. But that wouldn't be concerned with
this keyword anyway. A video, after all, would be hard to store in a
character field. But a BLOB would be quite nice. And a field that big
that was character (like storing the contents of "War and Peace" as a
single field in a database, would probably be a CLOB. (or datalink or
...)

And Joe, a field that large would not be defined on a D spec. It would
come from a file defined with SQL. :-) Any D specs would use LIKE.
