I am not sure. PL/pgSQL is really bad language for this task. Any
procedure developed in plpgsql should be pretty slow. Personally I am
happy with current 8.5. If some need it, the he could to use hstore -
contrib modules are not problem on every platform, but cannot generate
too much general triggers simply (what is good). I understand well to
motivation. But now I thinking, so general triggers are very bad and
risk technique and is better do things else. If someone really need
it, then he could to write C procedure.
