Why don't you just use the built-in PostgreSQL function for that?

SELECT aid, asid,
   generate_series (asdate, afdate, INTERVAL '1 day')::date AS asdate,
   acomments
FROM tbl

Maybe I'm missing something, but why don't you just use timestamp with
timezone instead?

Maybe something like the following:

CREATE TABLE test1 (
  id serial NOT NULL,
  val text NOT NULL,
  _user text NOT NULL,
  PRIMARY KEY (id)
);

COPY test1 (val, _user) FROM stdin;
for user1#1 user1
for user1#2 user1
for user2#1 user2
\.

CREATE VIEW test1v AS
SELECT id, val
FROM test1
WHERE _user = current_user;
