``TextField`` limitations
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
MySQL can index only the first N chars of a ``BLOB`` or ``TEXT`` column. Since
``TextField`` doesn't have a defined length, you can't mark it as
``unique=True``. MySQL will report: "BLOB/TEXT column '<db_column>' used in key
specification without a key length".
