yes, I played with it some years ago. I ended early, there was a problem with 
parser - when I tried append a new rule. And because there was not simple 
solution, I didn't continue.

But it can be nice feature - minimally for plpgsql coders.

Isn't there also some major problem with differentiating between 
schema/table/field with that too? I recall discussion along those lines, though 
maybe it was for the idea of recursive schemas.
