> From the beginning Empire-db used the data type "TEXT" to declare columns of type VARCHAR. However this is not very intuitive for SQL gurus and confusing for beginners.
> Hence, its been long overdue to rename the DataType TEXT to VARCHAR.
> Instead the type "TEXT" shoulb be marked as deprecated.
