You are right. And this will work right in the second attachment, created with
5.4.0.0beta1. Download an try to put
'123456'
into the field "Text_5_String".
An error appears. Won't save this input, Will only save '12345'.

But this won't work with the first attachment, created with 5.4.0.0alpha0.
Download and try to put
'12345678901234567890'
into the field "ShortName".
You could save this data, but the field is set to a length of 5 characters, as
it is set in the second attachment for "Text_5_String".
You could create new tables in this database with the same behavior: 5
characters, but 20 could be saved.

With new created databases it seems this bug won't appear - don't know why ...
