Just FYI, I've created something similar a while ago. The code can be found at
https://github.com/fgp/pg_record_inspect
The main difference seems to be that my code allows you to retrieve fields from a record without casting it to text. As a consequence, however, it lacks the set-returning functions that your's provides. It also doesn't provide a way to modify fields.
Still, maybe we could join efforts here? I certain would *love* to see something like this either as a contrib module or in core.
best regards,
