There is support for plugging into the parser and executor, so that
might be a possibility, but...

Yes, I know that a lot of hard work was done for making query plans, optimizing etc. but I'm still really wish to do this for some very specific needs. I'm not going to completely replace the SQL and thus will be happy to do those manipulations on a SQL 2008-compliant DBMS.
AFAIK HTSQL is very happy producing SQL; why not just let it hand SQL to
Postgres (which it already does...)
Have you by chance talked to Clark or Kirill about this?
