Tried to reduce this from some code I’m working on. I have a whole bunch of 
code that appends to an array in this way without casting ‘foo’ to text or 
text[]. It’s only in an exception block that it’s complaining.

Hrm, looking back through my code, it looks like I’m mostly calling format() to 
append to an array, which of course returns a ::text, so no ambiguity. Guess 
that’s my issue.

Thanks,

David
