Of those, I'd think autonomous transactions is by far the most likely
and also useful for other sitatuions. I don't see dblink or plproxy
being used for this. Having some internal setup which allows us to run
foreign functions in other databases seems more-or-less akin to
autonomous transactions also.

I agree, didn't mean to imply otherwise.
