Huh, thought for a second that was a WASM support for stored procedures or something and was excited for a second

Well it's not what you were expecting, but your idea sounds interesting too! Maybe you could muster the same open source forces to make it a reality?

I believe the team at Wasmer have worked on something like this:

https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer-postgres

It only works for PG10, but I can't imagine it will take much effort to bring it up to the latest version

This was also what I was expecting. Another reply to your comment mentioned Wasmer, which I found after a quick Google search. Unfortunately it looks like the last commit was almost 2 years ago and there's an issue where people are inquiring about the status of the project that hasn't seen a reply from the maintainers in about the same amount of time.
