Sorry, that is *just* as dangerous as implicit casts to text were. It would bite a different set of queries, but not any less painfully. I have about zero sympathy for ORMs that aren't willing to address this issue properly. Yeah, it might be less than trivial, but that doesn't mean that the right answer is to create semantic hazards on the server side. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
