1. As just a VARCHAR / VARBINARY without arbitrary low length limit (I hate putting in arbitrary limits in my applications). For example for storing forum posts, bug tracker comments or the like. Most will be at most a few
  100 bytes, but we want to allow a few with bigger sizes than current
  VARCHAR limits.

It will take a while to fix this, but if engines worked not through the current row[] but instead supplied values up via a value object, we could just dump the differences between arrays of different length.

2. Storing big chunks of data (PDFs, movies, or whatever) with average size
  several MB or maybe even GB.
