The tsearch trigger seems to insist that the column be text, varchar(n),
or char(n) ... no domains need apply :-(

I'm not real sure why it doesn't just invoke the column's output
function and be datatype-agnostic.  Or at least do that when the
shortcut "I know what text looks like" path isn't applicable.
