+/// Map a SQL text value to/from a Rust type using [`Display`] and [`FromStr`].
+///
+/// This can be useful for types that do not have a direct SQL equivalent, or are simply not
+/// supported by SQLx for one reason or another.
+///
+/// For strongly typed databases like Postgres, this will report the value's type as `TEXT`.
+/// Explicit conversion may be necessary on the SQL side depending on the desired type.
+///
+/// [`Display`]: std::fmt::Display
+/// [`FromStr`]: std::str::FromStr
+///
+/// ### Panics
+///
+/// You should only use this adapter with `Display` implementations that are infallible,
+/// otherwise you may encounter panics when attempting to bind a value.
+///
+/// This is because the design of the `Encode` trait assumes encoding is infallible, so there is no
+/// way to bubble up the error.
+///
+/// Fortunately, most `Display` implementations are infallible by convention anyway
+/// (the standard `ToString` trait also assumes this), but you may still want to audit
+/// the source code for any types you intend to use with this adapter, just to be safe.
+///
+/// ### Example: `SocketAddr`
+///
+/// MySQL and SQLite do not have a native SQL equivalent for `SocketAddr`, so if you want to
+/// store and retrieve instances of it, it makes sense to map it to `TEXT`:
+///
+/// ```rust,no_run
+/// # use sqlx::types::{time, uuid};
+///
+/// use std::net::SocketAddr;
+///
+/// use sqlx::Connection;
+/// use sqlx::mysql::MySqlConnection;
+/// use sqlx::types::Text;
+///
+/// use uuid::Uuid;
+/// use time::OffsetDateTime;
+///
+/// #[derive(sqlx::FromRow, Debug)]
+/// struct Login {
+///     user_id: Uuid,
+///     socket_addr: Text<SocketAddr>,
+///     login_at: OffsetDateTime
+/// }
+///
+/// # async fn example() -> Result<(), Box<dyn std::error::Error>> {
+///
+/// let mut conn: MySqlConnection = MySqlConnection::connect("<DATABASE URL>").await?;
+///
+/// let user_id: Uuid = "e9a72cdc-d907-48d6-a488-c64a91fd063c".parse().unwrap();
+/// let socket_addr: SocketAddr = "198.51.100.47:31790".parse().unwrap();
+///
+/// // CREATE TABLE user_login(user_id VARCHAR(36), socket_addr TEXT, login_at TIMESTAMP);
+/// sqlx::query("INSERT INTO user_login(user_id, socket_addr, login_at) VALUES (?, ?, NOW())")
+///     .bind(user_id)
+///     .bind(Text(socket_addr))
