Schemas not available for pl/pgsql %TYPE....

Call me crazy, but shouldn't the following work?  :~|


CREATE FUNCTION t() RETURNS TEXT AS '
DECLARE
    col_name pg_catalog.pg_attribute.attname%TYPE;
BEGIN
    col_name :=3D ''uga'';
    RETURN col_name;
END;
' LANGUAGE 'plpgsql';
CREATE FUNCTION


SELECT t();
WARNING:  plpgsql: ERROR during compile of t near line 2
ERROR:  Invalid type name 'pg_catalog.pg_attribute.attname % TYPE'
