Re: patch: Allow the UUID type to accept non-standard formats

I think it will be as expensive to app to convert UUID to standard  
format, as it would be too postgrsql.
But if psql does it - everyone would expect it to do it right. You  
can't possibly detect all forms of screwed up design, and expect  
application to pick it up.
All I say, is I think it would be better to be conservative in this  
case. And funny enough, I only replied to that message - because I  
know something about trying to compensate for non standard types, and  
I've seen that discussion quite few times around here in the past.

Just a friendly opinion.
