Bug reference:      2418
Logged by:          James
Email address:      james@mercstudio.com
PostgreSQL version: 8.1
Operating system:   Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Description:        number & date & time
Details:

hi,

we would like to have convinience data conversion from datatype number of
value '' as null and datatype date / timestamp / timestampz of value '' as
null...

so far, postgresql will reject those value for number and date / time field
when it's empty string '' (as invalid date value or invalid number value)

it would be nice to have it auto converted :)
