What's the real use case for that? If you don't want it, just don't
ask for it - no?
At least with InnoDB - IIRC - then you don't even get the page cache
hit from the data then.
And really - in what kind of application is storing that big blobs a
good idea?[1]
I have the impression that most of us here have spent much too much of
our time just building Javascript driven Kitten websites; so your

[1] I have a couple applications where we use the DB as a kind of file
system (with a small web server and squid/varnish in front) because it
used less space and was easier to backup etc than with actual files --
but it's a weird use of the database and I'd never mix it with "real"
data.
