So I'm thinking again about the problems with fixed length data types not
having typmod available when they would need it. But I'm having trouble
finding enough old posts to get a handle on exactly what the problem is.
This would make a nice test of the new wiki. I would be indebted to whoever
could summarize the root of the problem and explain exactly what circumstances
the typmod is unavailable. I would summarize the responses and put them up on
the wiki.
