Thinking about SQL assertions (check constraints that are independent of one particular table), do you think it would be reasonable to implement those on top of constraint triggers? On creation you'd hook up a trigger to each of the affected tables. And the trigger function runs the respective check expression. Conceptually, this doesn't seem to be very far away from foreign key constraints after all.
