So what would you run the SELECT against, another view or table?

No, what I meant was:

SELECT on main table: fires a rule which updates a view V1

Now, essentially, view V1 has the data I was trying to acquire
originally through BEFORE INSERT trigger.

When I need the data, I can query view V1.

Fair warning, it is morning here, the body is up, the brain cells are lagging behind:) So here it goes, from the docs:

"Presently, ON SELECT rules must be unconditional INSTEAD rules and must have actions that consist of a single SELECT command"

So if you want to do an UPDATE I'm guessing you will need to create a function for the SELECT. Basically Alfonso's previous suggestion. This is where things can start getting tricky.

This is where I grab a pencil and start laying out ideas on paper. Right now I cannot offer anything more than that.
