Had a great chat with Josh Berkus tonight about this and GIS types and
timestamps (or rather, working with them) which was interesting.

consider a timpstamp that is a day, not 0 seconds into that day, but
that day. versus a timestamp with microsecond granularity.

but i think we can solve this with a constraint.

or... how do you deal with "tuesday" and "every third wednesday"

oh, and do we care :)
(or do we care yet)




maybe what we want is type aliases:

BYTE.

STRING = BYTE with !binary collation.
