Description:
If you try and create a new column in a table with type TEXT it gets reset to VARCHAR(45) on apply.

How to repeat:
If you try and create a new column in a table with type TEXT it gets reset to VARCHAR(45) on apply.

Suggested fix:
The TEXT type in the dropdown contains TEXT() if you manually remove brackets it applies fine.

Thank you for the bug report.
