The folks at CommandPrompt have made some noise about developing these 
features, and I believe they actually have implemented trigger functionality 
in plperl.  I am not sure if they are going to contribute thier changes back 
to the community or not, but if you were planning on implementing these 
features it might be worth talking with them.
