This seems to be consistent with my informal survey on PGSQL-SQL and on #postgresql. Nobody seems to be using the current behavior. > The date/time and numbers formatting share parser only.

While I am not in any position to help with the code, I do use INTERVAL, TIMESTAMP, TIME and DATE heavily and have strong opinions about usability.
