Thanks, for your tip. I will try that.

Note it might have issues on new installs, so its not perfect.

I am using version 4.2.4(because I failed to include 5.0.1alpha),and I got the same problem. I think this is a issue which need to be fixed. now, we can do like this:

1. create new table
2. copy data from old to new
3. delete old table
