The positive modulus result returned by NUMERICs might be considered

inaccurate, in one sense.

* %Disallow changing DEFAULT expression of a SERIAL column?

This should be done only if the existing SERIAL problems cannot be

fixed.

* %Disallow ALTER SEQUENCE changes for SERIAL sequences because pg_dump

does not dump the changes

* Fix data types where equality comparison isn't intuitive, e.g. box

* -Zero umasked bits in conversion from INET cast to CIDR

* -Prevent INET cast to CIDR from dropping netmask, SELECT '1.1.1.1'::inet::cidr
