What do you mean by "as the plpgsql structure indicates I can"?
What part of the documentation are you looking at? If you're looking
at the "Structure of PL/pgSQL" section, then remember that it's
describing the structure of a PL/pgSQL function -- it mentions
nothing about being able to execute anonymous blocks.
With current releases of PostgreSQL, if you want to use PL/pgSQL
or any other server-side language (PL/Perl, PL/Python, PL/Tcl,
etc.), then you must write a function.
