I understand domains to be custom datatypes. For example, Interbase 6 never
fully supported boolean values, so you could create a domain called
IB_BOOLEAN. It was defined as VarChar(1) and had a check constraint to make
sure the only values could be 0 or 1.
I still dont understand why it is called a domain though.
