I'm starting to think there should be a FAQ entry for this ;-)
plpgsql is essentially incapable of doing anything that involves dynamic
field access, especially if the field types aren't known in advance either.
I believe you can do what you want in pltcl, and you can definitely
write such a trigger in C, but plpgsql is the wrong tool for the job.
If you want to try it in C, there are some relevant examples in
contrib/spi/ in the PG source distribution.
