Comment:

 We should do this. Postgres, at least, has no performance or storage space
 penalty for using `varchar` over `varchar(n)` -- the length requirement is
 basically a constraint, that's all. I imagine other modern DBs are
 similar, but even if not it's still a good idea to let users make the
 call, not do it unilaterally.
