Bug description:
  Serialized data is evil! its inefficient and much better to just use a
  proper data type IMO. Since we rely so heavily on database and needing
  mysql, we should be super clean about ONLY using sql IMO.

  I changed on config and borked scale! So, I had to fire up a stupid
  commandline client and enter this:

  update aiki_config SET
  
config_data='a:8:{s:4:"site";s:7:"default";s:3:"url";s:24:"http://scalejournal.org/";s:13:"default_chmod";s:4:"0775";s:11:"pretty_urls";s:1:"1";s:16:"default_language";s:7:"english";s:19:"default_time_format";s:9:"d
  - m -
  Y";s:8:"site_dir";s:3:"ltr";s:19:"language_short_name";s:2:"en";}'
  WHERE config_id=1 AND config_type='global_settings';

  That is insane because I had to hand edit and count the characters of
  the string.  Databases are used to store data, not have a data
  structure inside a storage system.

  This is a high necessary fix.

  If anything, we should provide easy access to creating proper fields
  on the db.
