Why not use pg_ls_dir()? An FDW would be mighty awkward to use
for this
purpose, even if one existed.
It cannot be used for an arbitrary directory:
" Only files within the database cluster directory and the
log_directory can be accessed. "

Personally, I don't know what use such a function would be. It would
be executed on the _SERVER_, not the client. And that is probably why
the pg_ls_dir() is restricted. If it weren't it could be a security
(or privacy) violation.

Well, I need to check the existence of a file from a query/procedure.
After posting I remembered I could do this with plperlu, I'm installing
it right now.
