I'll make one last appeal for a field in pg_class to list the primary
key. Really, we throw this information away and we shouldn't.

I have a pile of helper functions for PyGreSQL that I can't distribute
because I don't have a clean way of getting the key. Being able to grab
this information from the schema would be really useful. As it happens
I am getting ready to package up the next release right now so the
timing is perfect.
