 I have a CheckConstraint:

 {{{
 CheckConstraint(check=m.Q(outer__contains=m.F('inner')),
 name='outer_contains_inner')
 }}}

 where both outer and inner are DateTimeRangeFields. During migration, the
 inner range gets cast to its underlying type:

 {{{
 ALTER TABLE "test" ADD CONSTRAINT "outer_contains_inner" CHECK ("outer" @>
 ("inner")::timestamp with time zone)
 }}}

 The attached patch avoids the cast if both ranges are of compatible type
 (have not checked what happens if one is DateRange and the other is
 DateTimeRange, though).

 Another workaround would be to switch the relation around:

 {{{
 CheckConstraint(check=m.Q(inner__contained_by=m.F('outer')),
 name='inner_contained_by_outer')
 }}}

 but I feel since both give equal results, they should both be possible.
