However, the interval version of the function can capture the time case
because there's an implicit cast from time to interval:

regression=# select casttarget::regtype,castcontext,castfunc::regprocedure from 
pg_cast where castsource = 'time'::regtype;
casttarget | castcontext | castfunc ------------------------+-------------+----------------------------------------
 interval               | i           | "interval"(time without time zone)
 time with time zone    | i           | timetz(time without time zone)
 time without time zone | i           | "time"(time without time zone,integer)
(3 rows)

BTW it very much looks like we should have a pg_casts view that displays
these things in a human-readable manner (like the above except with
castcontext expanded)

Could we change the data types of the pg_cast table to regprocedure and regtype instead?
