I think this is more a TODO than anything else.  Last year we discussed
something similar to this -- twice, even; IIRC, one was buried somewhere
in the discussion about "variant" types, if you want to search the
pgsql-hackers archives.  As far as I recall, discussion died mainly
because no one had the time and/or energy to pursue it, not because it
was impossible.
