So remind me ... did we discuss PRIMARY KEY constraints? Are they
supposed to show up as inherited not null rows in the child? Obviously,
they do not show up as PKs in the child, but they *are* not null so my
guess is that they need to be inherited as not null as well. (Right
now, unpatched head of course emits the column as attnotnull).
In this case, the inherited name (assuming that the child declaration
does not explicitely state a constraint name) should be the same as the
PK, correct?
It is unclear to me that primary keys shouldn't be inherited by default.
But I guess that's a separate discussion.
