I think we've got that one actually. It's domains as PL-function output
types that aren't checked. Also plpgsql fails to enforce domain checks

Semantically, a domain and a subtype are completely different things. A
domain restricts the possible values of a type but behaves exactly like
that type in all other respects. (The fact that PostgreSQL allows you

Background:
Domains lay the groundwork for inherited basetypes

operators and possibly creating an operator class, then a domain
can be created which inherits the storage method

Hello,
Take the following:
template1=# alter user foo rename to bar;
NOTICE: MD5 password cleared because of role rename
NOTICE: MD5 password cleared because of role rename
ALTER ROLE

Now we have to reset the password.. which seems an extra
