[Savannah-hackers-public] long GPG keys

[Ineiev]

Hello,

Currently the 'gpg_key' colunm of the 'user' table has the 'text'
type, this means 64k character limit.  Some users attempted
to register longer GPG keys, and they were truncated. GnuPG 1.4
manages to import it, while complaining; GnuPG 2.2 tends to reject
such keys completely.

I think this could be fixed with
'alter table user modify gpg_key mediumtext'
(at least, it worked for the test instance at
https://i18n.frontend0.savannah.gnu.org).

Can there be reasons _not_ to do that?
