Comment (by Björn Harrtell):

 I agree the behavior is not optimal, but at the same time these are types
 that cannot be represented by the set of types available in the vector
 tile specification.

 A perhaps better solution, which I have thought about before, is to only
 parse the bool, int and float types to the corresponding vector tile type
 and let PostgreSQL return the string representation of any other type.
 What do you think?
