I like the general idea, but I'd prefer a way to avoid having to queue
up tons of trigger events to be executed in the first place.
Aggregates do this by providing a way to store up information to be
processed by an eventual 'final' function. Another option, as Kevin
asked about, would be statement level triggers which are able to see
both the OLD and the NEW versions of the relation.
The per-row trigger option with a way to be called immediately and then
store what it cares about for a later final function strikes me as very
generalized and able to do things that the statement-level option
couldn't, but I'm not sure if there's a use-case that could solve which
the OLD/NEW statement trigger capability couldn't.
Thanks,
Stephen
