In fact, IMHO, this would be a great place to start: we'd all love the
fuctionality, it'd have you examining almost all the same code, and it'd
be a feature we could all test, in diverse situations. DROP CONSTRAINT
is unlikely to be as widely tested. If you can build the introspection
correctly, so that it dumps/reloads correctly for _everyone_, then I'd
trust your DROP CONSTRAINT work a lot more.
