I suppose that upload and password fields may be special cases. However, it seems to me that 512 default is way too big for normal string fields. Why so big? Have space considerations become irrelevant?
In my apps 90% of strings are less than 128. As field sizes can always be increased, why not 128 or even 256 for now and simply increase when necessary?
