Iv'e started to work on this ticket [1] today and here [2] is my work so far. I'd appreciate some feedback on the implementation. There are a couple ways to handle the database type length.
1) Separate types one with a length spec and one without (as mentioned by Ben Davis in the ticket) 2) Some interface to get the type length specs (the approach I took) The second option more generic, and provides an interface for any type to specify a length or scale precision.
