You need to use VARCHAR(45), not 40, and no it wont have any negative effect.
This is already done for some IP fields in 4.2.4 onwards, and I'll look at adding some more.
However, from inspecting the code, doing so wont fix the above issue, as its the IP validation function thats failing, it only works for IPv4.
Thats something I will look at fixing in the current vB3/vB4 Beta & RC versions.
