Yes, but at present it's only available as part of EnterpriseDB. A PostgreSQL release should be available Real Soon
Now.

As someone who would greatly benefit from this feature, is there
something I can do to help out in development/testing of this feature? I
have a test server I could install a cvs release of pgsql and know my
way around a makefile.

Hi David,

At the moment it's just a case of us finding some time to pull the
appropriate code from EnterpriseDB and rebundle it as a PostgreSQL add on.

If you wish to test the debugger client though, you can always download
a copy of EnterpriseDB to test against (get the latest 8.2 build). There
will be some more changes to the client in the next few days though, so
look out for an update to pgAdmin.

Regards, Dave.
