Well, view isn't exactly required as you can just write the same SQL 
command into pass_query directly.

But why would you want to avoid views? They seem perfectly good 
solution to me. And if views aren't enough, you could write PostgreSQL 
function to return the wanted fields. In any case doing separate 
queries to SQL server is just going to be slower. Perhaps with MySQL 
separate queries would be required to get anything less trivial done.
