If you target C coded triggers then all you need to do is provide a
pointer to the Node *parsetree, I would think.  What else?

The drawback though is still the same, the day you do that you've
proposed a public API and changing the parsetree stops being internal
refactoring.  The way around this problem is that if you want a command
trigger in C, just write an extension that implements the Process
Utility hook.  Bonus, you can have that working with already released
versions of PostgreSQL.
