I get an error message like "Function len(text) does not exist." if I try
something out like the following on a string field.

…
      for length, \
          incidence in session.query(func.len(position.label),
                                     func.count(position.label)
                                    ).group_by(func.len(position.label)) \
                                     .order_by(func.len(position.label)):
…


Is it interesting that the following approach seems to work instead?

…
      for length, \
          incidence in session.query(func.length(position.label),
                                     func.count(position.label)
                                    ).group_by(func.length(position.label)) \
                                     .order_by(func.length(position.label)):
…


How is the function "length" mapped to the SQL function "LEN"?
