Hmmm,

combining it, we need a place to tell the language handler
about it's personality. So the handler in plpgsql.so could
serve more than one dialect and just jump into different
gram.y path's. Note that it already does kinda that by faking
a first token telling if actually a function or trigger get's
compiled.

Will sleep over that idea.
