Scanning the application code to add casting info could be a pain and I may
not be sure if I have done that for all the function calls/string
comparisons. Moreover I need to repeat this process from scratch for each
customer/migration project.

Whereas if I have something handy (a set of override functions) I can do it
easily for every project. Moreover, PostgreSQL has a very organized list of
functions and decent documentation about arguments and return type. This
makes my task easy for building this one time set of override function. :-)

David's solution is what I would have suggested had he not said it already.

Thanks both of you for your help and suggestions :-)
