I thought we already broke out time spent in triggers as part of
EXPLAIN, and that the FK "triggers" were specifically ignored? (Granted,
that doesn't give you plan info, just timing...)
As for function plans, ISTM that could be added to the PL handlers if we
wanted to (allow a function invocation to return an array of explain
outputs).
