So if I understand you correctly you are planning to extend the current
timestamp type to work with both named time zones and HH:MM ones? I didn't
think you wanted the last one since your plan was to store a UTC+OID where
the OID pointed to a named time zone. And I guess that you don't plan to
add 00:00, 00:01, 00:02, ... as named zones with an OID.
