Hi,

  We have incorporated support for all date/time datatypes into our DBMS, however the usage of xs:Year, xs:YearMonth, etc. datatypes seems to be extremelly limited. Neither accessor functions, nor comparison operators (except for equality) are supported on these datatypes. Are you planning to make these datatypes first-class citizens at some point in the future and will be going on the wrong track by adding accessor functions and comparisons for these datatypes in our system?

Thank you,
