Reminds me of creating a "shell type" so you can create I/O functions before *actually* creating the type. I don't
suppose"SHELL" is available.
That reminds me (OT), it's currently impossible to write an uninstall script for a custom data type because of the
circulardependency between a type and its I/O functions. There's no way around that sort of DROP EXTENSION CASCADE, is
there?
