The next version of PyGreSQL (with DB-API 2.0) is going to start being
worked on.  You should join the mailing list if you have suggestions
on changes.

Not sure what you mean by this.  It currently does check the type and
only falls back to string if there is no good Python object type to
convert to.  It converts to integers and floats as necessary.

I believe this will be required for DB-API anyway.
