It creates weird issues of access, security, versioning and
so forth if a document imaging system sits next to a records
management system capable of embedding CLOBs and BLOBs. It's
an alligator with a head on both ends.
Yes, an index is sort of nice to have if the server is
reliable. If it isn't, better to make them suffer than
to keep explaining why it worked last night and doesn't
this morning.

write a codec, ugh), but some non-tech designer type friends assure
me otherwise.

You don't need an index?
