Can we allow/bypass the pg_* restriction, and call it pg_<table-oid>_<n>,
and for pedants like me, add a DB setting that says 'enforce unique
constraints' ala the spec to avoid manually created constraints being
non-unique?

Alternatively, I would be happy *not* to enforce constraint name uniqueness
(and break the spec) so long as we also break the spec and add table OID
(or something else) to the information schema (table name would be OK so
long as renaming the table won't break anything).
