Write a function foo that returns a set, then a view: "create view as
select * from foo()". Incorporate all the trickiness in the function,
including variables, multiple temporary tables, whatever you need.
I tried that, and have already sent a message to this list about
it. The function needs to be passed NEW.* in order to know
what data it's looking at. When you try to do that you get
the following error message:
ERROR: function expression in FROM may not refer to other relations
of same query level
