Hi hackers,

Do you think it will be useful to specify STORAGE and/or COMPRESSION
for domains?

As an example, this will allow creating an alias for TEXT with
EXTERNAL storage strategy. In other words, to do the same we do with
ALTER TABLE, but for types. This feature is arguably not something
most people are going to use, but it shouldn't be difficult to
implement and/or maintain either.

Thoughts?
