Is it possible to log all sql statements submitted to database server in a table in that database it self?
It's possible to cobble together something to appoximate that without too much trouble if you're running V8.3. You can use the CSV log format to make the logs show up in a tabular fashion: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/runtime-config-logging.html#RUNTIME-CONFIG-LOGGING-CSVLOG
And then you can change log_statement (on that same page) to "all". The main tricky part is that you need to account for log rotation and such with whatever approach you take; you're on your own to figure out when the server is finished with a log such that you can import it, or to write something that imports more often. It's possible to write something to use a "tail -f" type of approach that imports after every line is read, but that's harder.
BTW: I'm dropping the admin list from my reply here because I'm not subscribed to that one at the moment. It's bad form to cross-post to multiple lists here. Pick the one you think you're more likely to get a response on first, and only if you don't get anything useful back after a wait should you submit your question to a second list.
