Our package lets you pass individual statements or entire files full of SQL with embeded comments as it's not that uncommon among SQL dialects - they're just stripped out before getting to the engine, as Alvaro suggested.
Unfortunately I need the information in the statement to sort the result set in a certain way later on. Sorry, I should have mentioned that from the beginning.
This whole thing I want to implement was already written as a proxy JDBC driver - from parser to result sorter - and works quite fine. I am now investigating if it's possible to implement it directly in an RDBMS, i.e. PostgreSQL.
