If the transaction is rolled back, changes made by your trigger to
local database will be also canceled.

Unless you make any manipulation on remote databases, you have no problem.

Any changes made to remote databases, for example if you call some
dblink functions, are not transactional, and will not be rolled back.

In this case you have to rethink your design, as there is no "ON
COMMIT" trigger (yet?)
