As of 8.1 there is a new ALTER TABLE variation which lets you move
tables and views from one schema to another. There's also an ALTER
FUNCTION and a couple of other I forget.

http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/sql-altertable.html
http://developer.postgresql.org/docs/postgres/sql-alterfunction.html

Note however that they do not accept wildcards. In fact, we do not
support wildcards at all in SQL (except for LIKE expressions, etc)
AFAIR.
