Description: Documentation bug: Triggers in plpythonu
Details:
A trigger in plpythonu cannot use the `args' list to obtain the arguments
and does not return the row to be written into the database. Instead the
arguments are placed into a global dictionary called "TD". The row is in
TD["new"] as a dictionary keyed by the names of the fields (the values are
the values of the field). The trigger is supposed to return "SKIP" (or
None?) if it wants the operation to be skipped or modify the TD["new"] to
the actual content to be written into the database and then return "MODIFY".
