I'm not sure what you mean here. Do you want me to make the kind of
error more open, e.g. by adopting the wording used for the :zone and
:originalzone arguments for the date extension?

`It is an error to specify both :zone and :originalzone.'

Which basically leaves the kind of error up to the implementer. I have no 
problem with that.

I was unclear, sorry. I was talking about having to catch the error at compile
time. I think catching it at execution time should be allowed.

It can be useful. Anyone else got suggestions or comments about this?

Yeah, this is one where additional comments would really be nice.

Yes, otherwise users could get surprised at some point.

Thanks. I'll make a new version some time next week.

Excellent.
