This is only PARTIALLY complete:

MATCH FULL and MATCH <unspecified> foreign keys and their related
referential actions are complete. MATCH PARTIAL isn't in - I'll be
doing that for 7.1.

It doesn't check that the columns referenced in a foreign key
form a primary key or are contrained by UNIQUE in the referenced
table. This will be checked in 7.1, not sure who will do it (who
ever gets to it first, probably).

Those are the two major user-visible loose ends with this feature.
