There has been a long standing issue about not having the ability to pass
parameters to Postgresql in binary format. Currently all parameters are
passed as text and Postgresql figures out what type they should be.
Cyrus raised the question about whether passing parameters as binary rather
than text should be set globally or on a query by query basis. He also
raises the question of whether the QUERY macro could be more efficiently
re-written.
Your thoughts are requested.
