Is safe to change product description field type?

[Juri]

Hi,
i have products with very long description(more than 24.000 characters lenght).
I've tried on my demo server changing product_s_desc and product_desc field type from VARCHAR to MEDIUMTEXT, and it seems to work fine.
Anybody has already done this? Is there any known issue about?

Thanks !
