I had not noticed that "background session" proposal. That's definitely an
interesting feature to have for some use cases. Dblink implies a new
connection I think, pretty expensive. I wish that the proposal would be
language independent, like DB2 simple AUTONOMOUS declaration on a
function. It seems quite heavily linked to PL/pgSQL right now.
