Then why are oids sent in some type's external binary format? If you
can't fix oids, external format is useless to the outside world. Since
you CAN modify a type's name all day long, shouldn't schema.typname be
the external way to reference types? Or, perhaps, another mechanism.
There are some very powerful things that could be achieved, with a more
portable way of referencing types.
