It would be folly to design on that assumption.  We *will* have that
situation just as soon as plpgsql allows creating subtransactions
(which I trust you'll agree will happen soon).  All you have to do
is call such a function from a bare SELECT.  I do not think you'll
be able to legislate that people must say BEGIN first.
