This looks very interesting. Should we add it to the core

I think such types would be better implemented as some sort of
structured type, possibly with constructors and methods and all the
other stuff that SQL talks about. We don't have all of that yet --
maybe we don't need all of it immediately -- but before we start
endorsing many of these types I'd like to see some consideration given
to this issue.
Yeah, looks interesting but let's find the wrinkles. I was wondering if
it might have relevance to what I wanted to do with enumeration types,
i.e. we would tag each one with its particular enumeration id.
I also don't like the idea of it being done with user tables - if this
is core material then the tags should go in the catalog, ISTM.
