Eg group membership of be_users and fe_users. They are simply strings (and 
should be normalized anyway).

TYPO3 stores no binray data. BLOBs are always used where the contents is 
likely to be no natural speech, but this is no good reason to use a BLOB. 
At least in Oracle as it stores them differently optimized for huge chunks 
of data.
