On 7.4.6, is there any problem with defining one column of a view to be a
string literal?  For example ...

$ psql -c "create view fooview as select 'bar' as footype"
WARNING:  column "footype" has type "unknown"
DETAIL:  Proceeding with relation creation anyway.
CREATE VIEW

Or is this warning just noise in this case?
