Stream long value

[bersace]

Hi,

Would it be possible to expose a LONG column using a reader interface ? Something like:

var long mysql.LongText
row.Scan(&long)
long.Read(buf)

pgx has something similar for PostgreSQL: https://github.com/jackc/pgx/blob/master/pgproto3/chunkreader.go

What do you think of this ?

Regards,
Étienne

The sample code alone does not provide an understanding of how it is used. The link to pgx also only shows part of the implementation and does not give a complete picture.
