Asynchronous functions
*Problem*
Postgresql does not have support for asynchronous function calls.
Well, there is asynchronous support from the client of course. Thus
you can set up a asynchronous call back to the database with dblink.
There is some discussion about formalizing this feature -- you might
want to read up on autonomous transactions and how they might be used
to do what you are proposing.

I am looking for specifically server support and not client support.
Part of the proposal is that if the client goes away, it will still
continue to finish.
