Both Mysql (>5.x?) and Postgresql provide SQL functions that permit to
decode the LStat field on the fly.

example:

SELECT FileId, base64_decode_lstat(8, Lstat) FROM File...

SELECT SUM(base64_decode_lstat(8, Lstat)) FROM File...


This is a very smart way to get information from a web interface. For mysql,
the code seems to be a bit slow right now, but i'm in touch with the
author to correct that.

You can look the base64_decode_lstat() function in
trunk/gui/bweb/script/bweb-postgresql.sql (line 236)

This is only a 20 lines PL function...
