What if you have a multicolumn PK?
I'm not actually sure PG keeps track of "primary keyness" -- I think
it translates a PRIMARY KEY constraint into NOT NULL UNIQUE when the
table is created. So it might be really hard to implement your
feature, even if you can figure out what should happen for multicolumn
PKs.
