PL/pgSQL currently does not handle exceptions at all.  This is on the TODO 
list.

There are several variables and tools which provide current user and session 
information.  See the "PostgreSQL Administration" section of the 
documentation.

In Postgres, this is generally done through the RULES system instead of 
triggers.  Please lookup CREATE RULE in the online docs.
