Do you want to talk about what PostgreSQL *should* return for timestamp
values? Currently, it rounds to two digits if there is a non-zero
fractional part, and omits the fractional part otherwise.
Both features are there for readability and to eliminate the possibility
of accumulated rounding errors introducing "lots 'o nines" in the
output. But we *could* make it variable length or do more checking and
rounding in a different way. And we *could* at least have a SET
key=value parameter which you could use to guarantee a format for a
session.
The fact that JDBC has troubles with the current scheme means that
others are probably having trouble too...
