Terence,

Nope.  I'll suggest that for the TODO list ... we already have several 
requests for added features for PL/pgSQL.   The problem is that we currently 
don't have a lead developer for PL/pgSQL, so the language has rather 
stagnated.

And what's wrong with Perl?   Other than the inability to write triggers with 
it?  (We want to enable triggers in PL/perl, but that functionality isn't 
coming until at least 7.5).
