not sure we really need this since the user doesn't actually created
and of the "fields". there is a field for an id and the other is the
json data, so the user never interacts with modifying the db
Suppose we have an ACME inventory list app, which underwent structural
changes during the upgrade from 0.0.2 to 0.0.3 and now uses kilograms to
represent weight instead of pounds ;)
I want to have this "data migration" thing so I can do the conversion
the first time the database is open.
Makes sense now?
