Is there any way to work with tables etc, in plsql? Can i get a get a
database handle to the local database? If not, is there any chance for
this to be implemented in the near future?

thanks

Yes.

I don't know what you mean. A PL/pgSQL function is already part of the
database it belongs to. It doesn't need a handle.

I guess you mean plpgsql.

you dont need a database  handle inside plpgsql. you just can do SQL 
operations or do other stuff like inserting, updating and so on 
(sometimes you need the plpgsql PERFORM statement). look at the 
programmers guide about procedural languages (plpgsql.html)
