SE-PostgreSQL changes its internal state during foreign key constraint checks.
When user tries to update/delete a PK refered by invisible FK, SE-PostgreSQL
generates an error and prevent inconsistency in FK constraint.
When user tries to insert/update a FK which refers invisible PK, it is failed.
But it does not affect integrity consistency.
