When you reserve space in a database for comments, the same logic applies. It may be an idea to configure the number of characters but the database itself should allow for a language like Tamil.
This is one aspect of internationalisation that is a bit deeper then making sure that characters are shown correctly. It is cool to see people who champion their language pick up on issues like this. Srikanth submitted bug 34586 and it is getting an adequate response.
Srikanth is part of the language support team for Tamil.

Thanks Praveen :)
Its actually dependent I would say, since even Moodbar has 255 bytes for comment.
Lets hope we get a quicker resolution.
