I don't know about "quick and easy", but you can get the trigger
function sources from pg_catalog using your Python program. The
argument types and function names are also there, which gives you enough
information to programmatically generate CREATE and DROP statements for
the functions, as well as ALTER TABLE functions to add and remove the
triggers.
As for dependencies: doesn't PL/PgSQL only check the existence of
functions called, etc, once a procedure is actually executed? I can't
remember for sure, but it might not prove to be an issue.
