Maybe I don't understand your proposal well, I am sorry. Creating your own
language should not be hard, but in this case the plpgsql is not well
extendable. The important structures are private. You can do it, but you
should do a full copy of plpgsql. I don't think so you can reuse handler's
routines - it is not prepared for it. Unfortunately, the handler expects
only function oid and arguments, and there is not a possibility how to pass
any options (if I know).
