Hello Pavel,

What about using wait events and a trigger on pg_stat_activity ?

just :

* create a functions to get current query signature (queryid) for a pid

(not the top_level_query given for pl/pgsql blocks or triggers but the
active one)

* add some kind of active events to track planning  (in an extension with a
planning hook)

and populate some continuous views as proposed by pipelinedb (a very
flexible solution).

Yes, I know a trigger is not possible, and overhead of continuous views has
not been verified,
then some high frequency sampling on pg_stat_activity could help (I can
provide examples for f_get_current_queryid(pid), active event for planning
hook, continuous views)

An other solution: a customized version of pgsentinel (for high frequency
sampling):
