How about improving the money type so it can store
values in different currencies?

=# create table money1 (x money);
CREATE TABLE
=# insert into money1 values ('1');
INSERT 0 1
=# select * from money1;
   x   
--------
 Ft1,00
(1 sor)

=# insert into money1 values ('$1');
ERROR:  invalid input syntax for type money: "$1"

pg_dump -t money1:

==================
Ft1,00
\.
==================

Loading this dump into another database that happens
to have a different locale than hu_HU fails.

But then any operator between two money values would
only work if both values have the same currency.
