+=head2 CAVEATS
+
+=head3 identities
+
C<_identity_method> is set to C<@@identity>, as C<SCOPE_IDENTITY()> doesn't work
with L<DBD::ADO>. See L<DBIx::Class::Storage::DBI::MSSQL/IMPLEMENTATION NOTES>
for caveats regarding this.
+=head3 truncation bug
+
+There is a bug with MSSQL ADO providers where data gets truncated based on the
+size on the bind sizes in the first prepare:
+
+L<https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=52048>
+
+The C<ado_size> workaround is used (see L<DBD::ADO/"ADO Providers">) with the
+approximate maximum size of the data_type of the bound column, or 8000 (maximum
+VARCHAR size) if the data_type is not available.
+
+This code is incomplete and may be buggy. Particularly, C<VARCHAR(MAX)> is not
+supported yet. The data_type list for other DBs is also incomplete. Please
+report problems (and send patches.)
