OK, so instead of writing:
range(lower(range(1,2)),upper(range(1,2)))::int8range
users would write:
range(lower(range(1,2)::int8range),upper(range(1,2)::int8range))::int8range
A little more verbose, but it seems like it wouldn't be a practical
problem in very many cases. Multiple levels of constructors seem like
they'd be fairly uncommon, and probably a case where a function should
be written anyway.
OK, I'll have to think about this a little more, but it seems like a
reasonable approach.
