Comment:
Does the behavior change justify breaking backwards compatibility
(silently changing the input value)? Perhaps so, considering that
PostgreSQL (and its native IP address data type) won't let you store
duplicate values. It reports "Key (ip)=(192.168.1.10) already exists." for
the two addresses you proposed -- so is the proper normalization to remove
the leading zero?
