It is issue only for dynamic sql and polymorphic functions. But for all others we can do full check in validation stage. I thinking about similar tool to lint - just for plpgsql function. It cannot detect all bugs, but it can diagnose 99% of possible issues. I don't would to execute function - it is useless because you need good UI for execution all path. My idea is different. gram.y has check_sql_expr rutine. This is used for parser checking every static SQL fragment in plpgsql function. With some hook we can do full plan generation instead.
