I would appreciate this.

I doubt that I it would fix problem with

update sometable set a=a+1

where there exist unique index on sometable(a), but it would make
postgresql behavoir closer to standard SQL.

In my (user) point of view, it is obvoisly bugfix, rather than added
feature, so it has right to appear in 7.2.x release.
