There are lots of caveats -- the first being that you would need to
extract the messages from the function body. I don't think there's a
gettext PL/pgSQL parser, so there's a first hurdle there.
Then there's the matter of not mixing the "postgres" message domain with
the user's, so we would need to change it just before calling RAISE and
restore it afterwards.
