Fair enough but the difference here is that you have dedicated raise
statements for each of the two record structure outcomes whereas in the
complaint you are using the same statement for both.
The question here is whether there is some way for the placeholder argument
in the raise notice to always be considered "text" and for all assigned
values to be implicitly converted to text at runtime in an
unchecked/uncached manner. Since all types have textual conversion/output
functions, and the idea of "notice" is to output text, that is indeed what
is expected.
I'm not sure this really solves your use case though. I am pretty certain
you are going to be stuck trying to enforce that input queries use
homogenious types by using explicit casting. SELECT 1::text; SELECT
'test'::text;
