That was NOT supposed to happen. :P

CREATE TABLE [Test](
    [ID] INTEGER PRIMARY KEY AUTOINCREMENT NOT NULL,
    [T1] TEXT,
    [T2] BLOB_TEXT);

insert into Test (T1,T2) values ('Test 1','Test 2');

In SQLite Expert, it hides "Test 2" as a (blob).  I'm fine with that.
In SQLITE3.exe, it shows "Test 2".  I'm also fine with that.

What I'm not entirely sure of is whether SQLite Expert is understanding and
handling the BLOB_TEXT field and just not doing the actual query to get the
text, or, if it understand if there is some kind of special handling that
SQLite Expert is not doing and just shows (blob).

The reason I'm asking is that I've got an application that handles bulk
text inserts, and I want to make sure that I don't run into some kind of
stupid (My code, not SQLite) limitation that'd chop text out, or what have
you.
