#289: Foreign key UI bug

I found a UI bug when creating a foreign key.

When creating a primary key, all you have to do is select the column in
the *Columns* tab of the dialog. You don't have to fill out any other
fields; pgadmin appears to take care of this for you.

It seems then that with a foreign key, all you should have to fill out is
fill out the *References* field in the *Properties *tab, then in the
*Columns* tab just select the relevant columns. If I do this and press OK,
I get this error:

*An error has occurred:*
*ERROR: relation "fki_" already exists.*

If I go back to the *Properties* tab and enter something into the *Name*
field, then press *OK*, it works.

The problem: I don't need to enter anything in the *Name* field of primary
key dialogs, but I do with foreign key dialogs. Can it be consistent where
I don't need to enter a *Name* field of the foreign key, either.
