The default data length for an Object property is 1024 characters.

This can become a problem in libraries that provide their own Loopback models - such as loopback-component-passport as can be seen from this issue.

This component has a userIdentity model with profile property of Object type. For GitHub and Google profiles, that default length is too short.

This raises 2 questions:

1. Can we use JSON Data Type when it's available which can handle up to 1GB of data
2. Can we bump up the default rate to something bigger?
