There's an example in the directory
pgsql/contrib/spi/insert_username.* that insert the
username when the user update or insert a row into the table.
I modified this example to insert CURRENT_USER and CURRENT_TIMESTAMP
into the row.
It is very sample to implement but if you want I may send it to you.
