Here is a patch that adds the notion of a data type to a sequence. So
it might be CREATE SEQUENCE foo AS integer. The types are restricted to
int{2,4,8} as now.
This patch does not apply cleanly to current master (=600dc4c).
Must admit I first thought of: "2, 4, 8, who do we appreciate!"
MORE SERIOUSLY:
Would a possibly future expansion be to include numeric?
Of hand, I can't see any value for using other than integers of 2, 4, &
8 bytes (not a criticism! - may simply be a failure of imagination on my
part).
I am curious as to the use cases for other possibilities.
Cheers,
Gavin
