> I am working through some i18n/l10n issues in a new application and one of our possible solutions for handling date formatting is to have the dates formatted by pgsql per session. I know I Can use DateStyle to adjust date output, but I am looking for something that works like SET DateStyle but with finer control like to_char(format, timestamp).

no

no on sql level - you can do some only in C lang - create own type -
compatible with timestamp but with own output function.
