This is more out of curiosity but also lends itself to efficiency.  When creating the BO's using the Business Object Mapper, shouldn't there be some way of creating a property with MaximumSize?  This way when creating the UI, I do not have to keep referring to our SQL Schema to find out the size of each field.  We have over 540 tables in our schema, more tables and fields being added by the DBA frequently so I cannot keep track of the sizes in my head.

So whether the field should accept 1 character or 5,000, it would be easier to type:

MyTextField.MaximumSize = Me.MyBO1.Field.MaximumSize - or if you look at my enhancement idea for an automatic screen builder wizard, this metadata could be used to set the property automagically.

You have the data in the DDT and even if you directly import into the BOM, all you need is an additional MaxSize field listed here to support this feature. 

So, out of curiosity, is this something that "might" be supported in the future?
