Title: Increase the limit of some selected text columns

Hey,

Not sure you want this one, I've already solved my problems locally with a change_column migration, but I'd figure I'd send it up if you want it. The 65000 byte default mysql text limit isn't cutting it for our use and I've increased it.

Even though 65000 seems very big at first, its very possible to hit it in a couple different use cases. 65000 for data on cms_revisions is likely a more common problem since it serializes content+js+css.

The limit specified falls under mysql mediumtext, and by my understanding shouldn't effect other db types.

Cheers
