it's not supported yet?

postgres=# create or replace function foox(a integer) returns integer
as $$ begin return foox.a; end $$ language plpgsql;
CREATE FUNCTION

ostgres=# select foox(10);
ERROR: missing FROM-clause entry for table "foox"
LINE 1: SELECT foox.a
^
QUERY: SELECT foox.a
CONTEXT: PL/pgSQL function "foox" line 1 at return

I am sure, It's good idea - and I thing SQL/PSM specifies it too.
