Let me stress one last point:
MODULE’s are 100% orthogonal to PLpgSQL as implement by SFDC and also orthogonal to SQL PL as implemented by DB2.
Modules can (and do for us) contain C-functions of example.
Similarly when the community provides provides server side session variables I have no doubt they will integrate with MODULE’s with very little work.

It’s a DDL and name resolution game, predominantly

show patch and show a advantages against schema, please.
