 Thanks for your help. But still, do you think there could be a way to
alter the dblink_current_query() function so that it could return the
right query? Or should I try to build the query in a function and send
it through dblink instead of dblink_current_query()?

  I've also been told that oracle has an auditing service that records
every action the users make, including the queries issued. If pg has
something like that I could use it instead.
