Description
Currently `gh-ost` doesn't support `JSON` and `POINT` data types.
Support for `JSON` is imminent, since https://github.com/siddontang/go-mysql/issues/87 is already fixed (but I haven't updated the library). Not sure about `POINT`.
Anyhow, if `gh-ost` _knows_ about an unsupported datatype, it should _say so_.
