It might be a good idea to place a reference to table 8-1 in
the various subsections of the Datatypes section in the
online postgresql documentation. Otherwise, when hyperjumping
from the table of contents to a specific section, table 8-1 may
not be in sight (as it is not for integer datatypes) and the user
is left wondering why these datatypes aren't further defined.
