User defined type without single quotes - Mailing list pgsql-docs

I defined a new type to represent an unsigned int, but when I try do run a query it complains because it is not quoted and casted to my type.

Suppose I have a table:

-- my_uint32 is my new type

CREATE TABLE test (a my_uin32);

If I try to run this insert, postgres complain about the type:

INSERT INTO teste (a) VALUES (10);

But this one works:

NSERT INTO teste (a) VALUES ('10'::my_uint);

Is there a way to avoid the single quotes?
