Do the conversions provided by the DefaultTypeDescriber for dynamic rows and cells cover all common use cases? #19

Open kevin-montrose opened 4 years ago

This was posed in Overthinking CSV With Cesil: Reading Dynamic Types.

Basically, are they any conversions from dynamic rows or cells to concrete types that should be supported that the DefaultTypeDescriber does not support?

Similarly, but slight differently, are there any kinds of conversions that would be useful that cannot be expressed using ITypeDesciber ?
