In plpgsql I prefer PL/SQL syntax. Mix SQL/PSM and PL/SQL will be
mismas. But I like idea, so you can set dynamically SQLSTATE and other
params - because you can write own wrapper for RAISE statement. It's
can be usable for centralized  exception management. I can do it in C,
but there are lot of users, that could use only plpgsql.
