   We have two common type evolutions that we'd like to see:
   
   int -> float
   int -> string
   
   Actually, for the latter it's more like:
   numeric -> string
   
   This is for similar reasons as the initial comment, where the source data 
starts as one type but as it changes we don't want to lose that historical data
