I guess it could be usefull to get an endless loop of trigger pulling
from time to time ;))

Imagine a trigger on the table which postgres uses for holding the trigger
data. Creating the trigger means action on the table, which in turn
pulls the trigger ...

Regardless of this I agree that it would be usefull - but one would
have to be _very_ carefully with the design of the trigger.
