It turns out there is the [tz package](https://hackage.haskell.org/package/tz) for full tz conversions on Hackage already, and it looks like it's not too unreasonable.

This seems like a plausible candidate for inclusion, although I don't quite see the use case yet. I'm still not clear on what real advantage there is to using type-level...

This issue was hinted at in #61, although not explicitly spelled out. This is also somewhat related to #65. In order for your code to work as is, postgresql-simple would...

Ok, I think issue #105 provided another example of things that should perhaps work, namely something like: ``` executeMany c "insert into foo (x,y) values (?,row(?,?))" [(1,"hello","bar"),(2,"world","baz")] ``` My (very...

Well, if you are inserting millions of rows, you almost certainly do not want to use a single call to `executeMany`, as this means postgresql-simple is going to construct a...

That is a good question. Unfortunately, there is not really a way to do this at the present time. One possibility would be to use libpq to construct `Result`'s that...

Sorry for not responding earlier. I've taken this approach on a few of my projects. e.g. ~~~ data AttrName a = AttrName !ByteString a instance FromField a => FromField (AttrName...

As for the possibility of including `AttrName` in postgresql-simple, or take it one step further with `instance (FromField a) => FromRow (Map Text a)`, I don't know, I haven't thought...

The conversion doesn't handle ranges outside the default range at all, whether it's less than one or greater than one. This was briefly mentioned, though not really discussed, in the...

I'm not sure whether or not the feature is insane; after all `Data.Array` has the same feature. Probably the thing to do is to add a new datatype that reflects...
