Oh, interesting. Furthermore, if I add an unrelated trigger to fkt
so that there's still a trigdesc, then I reach
ERROR: XX000: could not find trigger 42452
LOCATION: AfterTriggerExecute, trigger.c:4303
So what this demonstrates is that we should not consider it an
error if afterTriggerInvokeEvents finds an event for a trigger
that no longer exists.
Perhaps an alternative could be to run through the pending events
at DROP time and throw an error if there's an unfired event for the
trigger. That doesn't sound better to me though. I see no very
good reason why we shouldn't allow the above sequence of commands
and treat the constraint as no longer to be enforced.
