Oh, thanks for prodding, I didn't notice it was still failing, I thought
it just hadn't run since that fix.
There is actually a similar test for text already. I don't really have
any reason to believe that this would work differently with different
datatypes, adding tests with different datatypes was perhaps overkill in
the first place. I'm going to just remove the offending case.
