Of course, that's an option for my case. Just wanted to know if this solution
could be useful for PostgreSQL in general. Mainly because I'll add some
triggers to check what maybe PostgreSQL should do itself but it's
unimplemented.

If that's not interesting or a proper solution for PostgreSQL I'll add it
using the existing DDL in my application and that's all.

What do you think?
