How much more? And what about performance?

In fact I don't need very large objects. 64k or even 32k will suffice.
Could such not-so-large objects be implemented more effectively? It would
be very nice to have a new postgres type for this. The 8k limit is very
restrictive. What do postgres gurus think?
