As far as I can remember, this parameter was introduced because some
sysadmins queried the sql database directly to look for certain IPs. I
know that this isn't good for performance but it has some clients in
ulogd 1.x.

Does mysql have something like the PgSQL's inet type? Looking at the
database definitions, we are storing the IPs in binary format in mysql
and in inet type in PgSQL. Does this mean that there's no replacement
for the ip_as_string in mysql?
