1. Why did you base the datatype on cstring? That's inappropriate for
anything except guaranteed-short strings, because it's not toastable.
It's only my laziness. I can adapt patch for TEXT. It's only temporary
solution. The goal is true xml type.
2. Is it really necessary to hack up the grammar for this? Seems like
you should create ordinary functions to manipulate the datatype(s).
If every datatype thought it could do this sort of thing, we'd have
a completely unmanageable grammar.

I prefere any general solution. But there isn't. I hope SQL/XML syntax is
exception and the solution SQL/XML function is relative clean. There was
ideas about pretranslators from different syntaxs. Is this idea dead?
