User defined types -- Social Security number...

Anyone have a good pre-built user-defined type definition for creating /
maintaining / manipulating a SSN ... where valid chars are in the range
000-00-0000 through 999-99-9999.

I imagine that the storage column is probably varchar(11) -- I am looking
for a type definition that

1) checks that all numbers are in the range [0..9]
2) inserts the dashes at position
3) accepts either '000123456' OR '000-12-3456' as the input
4) leading zeroes (as in the above) must be stored -- hence varchar(11)
instead of numeric
5) always outputs in thje format '000-12-3456'

Either that or the question is: How can I coerce postgreSQL into using an
input / output "mask"...
