The Storylen field is currently seriously overloaded. It needs to be split into:
A script must copy existing entries to new fields, based on the current field contents and title type.
There must be interfaces to set and edit each of the new fields, which should be pulldowns for fields with a restricted set of choices, and checkboxes for flags.
Coresponding changes must be made in the Web API.
