so we have to solve this issue first. Please, can you do resume, what
is and where is current constraint implementation raise
strange/unexpected messages?

one question

when we will fix constraints, maybe we can use some infrastructure for
enhanced error fields. What about partial commit now - just necessary
infrastructure without modification of other code - I am thinking so
there is agreement on new fields: column_name, table_name,
schema_name, constraint_name and constraint_schema?
