I've got binary operators working with automated type conversion, at
least for some cases:

tgl=> select 2.0 > 1;

?column?
--------
t
(1 row)

However, I'll need to revisit the search algorithms for matching
possible types to functions and operators; I'm pretty sure that the best
algorithm (or even the minimally acceptable one) isn't in there yet.

On to target type matching...
