But should the CREATE DOMAIN manual page refer to DROP TYPE? Should DROP
DOMAIN be able to drop a type? What happens in the future if for some
reason we need to add some special case to dropDomain() and the coder
neglects to add it to dropType()?
The benefit is reduced thinks to worry about when coding AFAIKS.
