There is one load balancing software available which is based on the ACE 
library.
Just have a look at:

http://freshmeat.net/projects/dbbalancer/

I haven't tested it up to now.

I am now looking for a workaround - I am sure that there are many 
workarounds for this issue (explicit joins, persistent connections, etc. 
...).
I thought it might be useful to have something like a data type (or 
maybe a binary field) used to store execution plans.

People could use this feature as some sort of "server side" function or 
so ...
It can be seend as some sort of optimized function in the backend which 
can be loaded/executed more efficiently.

Maybe others would like to see that feature as well.
