Sorry.
I forgot to mention that I have two arrays (records).

One for the modifiable elements, and one for the checkable elements.

If there is a conflict between the actual mod. item and one of the
checkable items, the checkable item will move to the end of the
modification list.
And the actual mod. item starting time could be changed in this process.

First I imagined a temporary table, but I felt this has too much overhead
against an "in memory" array.
UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE and reopen after each modification.

Assuming it is installed and you have the necessary permissions there is 
plpython3u. As it is Python it is looser on types. As example:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION public.python_test()
  RETURNS void
  LANGUAGE plpython3u
AS $function$
rec_list = []

for row in plpy.cursor("select category_fk, cell_per from cell_per where 
cell_per > 1"):
     rec_list.append({"cat": row["category_fk"], "cp": row["cell_per"]})
plpy.notice(rec_list)

$function$
;

select * from python_test();
NOTICE:  [{'cat': 'HERB 3.5', 'cp': 18}, {'cat': 'H PREM 3.5', 'cp': 
18}, {'cat': 'HERB 2.5', 'cp': 32}, {'cat': 'H PREM 2.5', 'cp': 32}, 
{'cat': 'GER SC 3.5', 'cp': 18}, {'cat': 'SUCCULENTS', 'cp': 18}]
  python_test
-------------

(1 row)
