Safe to pointer overlay a varchar onto a clob?

Voted. Made me realize though that IBM could do a lot to make it more obvious how to "vote" - a teeny-tiny thumbs-up image that can be clicked is not my idea of a vote button - but i couldn't see any other option.

Thanks - you'll see I gave you credit! Any edits you think I should make let me know.

IBM also don't make it obvious how to add or view comments - you can only do that from the view on https://ibm-power-systems.ideas.ibm.com, not on https://ideas.ibm.com/. If you load it on the latter you have to click on the "See in the Aha! portal" button to move over to https://ibm-power-systems.ideas.ibm.com before you can do anything with comments.

Yea - I finally found the comments. The whole thing is a design mess - you can see that there are comments but not view them - and while I did eventually try the "Aha" link it was far from obvious why I would want/need to.
