Problem is if you create table in schema other than public (I am not
sure if \dd should show comments only for objects in public schema, I
assumed not?)

db=# create schema test;
CREATE SCHEMA
db=# create table test.foo (f1 int primary key);
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / PRIMARY KEY will create implicit index
"foo_pkey" for table "foo"
CREATE TABLE
db=# comment on constraint foo_pkey on test.foo is 'here is a comment';
COMMENT
db=# \dd
Object descriptions
Schema | Name | Object | Description
--------+------+--------+-------------
(0 rows)
