I am sorry, I don't understand. Now due inheritance plpy.Fatal and
plpy.SPIError has availability to use keyword parameters.
postgres=# do $$ raise plpy.Fatal('AHOJ','NAZDAR');
$$ language plpythonu;
FATAL: 38000: plpy.Fatal: AHOJ
DETAIL: NAZDAR
CONTEXT: Traceback (most recent call last):
PL/Python anonymous code block, line 1, in <module>
raise plpy.Fatal('AHOJ','NAZDAR');
