I find this to be not all that useful. Current practice is to avoid
relying on search_path and, in general, to schema-qualify object references
(yes, attaching a local SET search_path to a function works, not sure how
it would play out in this context). Performing a dependency and contextual
rename of one schema name to another is challenging given all of that, and
impossible if the schema name is hard-coded into a function body.
I won't say we wouldn't accept such a patch, but as this isn't exactly a
new problem or realization, and the feature doesn't presently exist, that
for whatever reasons individuals may have no one has chosen to volunteer or
fund such development. I don't even remember seeing a proposal in the past
5 or so years.
