I'm working on this as well at the moment. No insights or lessons
learned yet though. :) I'd also like to see an updated tinterval type
(there's a deprecated one lurking about in the code) that used the
current timestamptz implementation rather than abstime. I'd like to
work on making this datatype and corresponding functions. Need to learn
