Actually, no it doesn't require an integer type column for the UNIQUE 
clause.  I have used text fields in the past with mapserver 5.x and can 
confirm that it does indeed work.

Mind you, some other cartographic software such as QGIS does insist on 
int4 fields for PostGIS layers, but not mapserver.
