I believe you can rename the underlying indexes and the constraints will

I'm sorry but I don't understand what that means or how to relate that
to a SQL command to rename the constraint. Do you have an example of
how that command would look?

2. When renaming the table, is there a way to rename both the table
and all associated constraints?
No, there's nothing automatic for that.  IIRC there used to be code to
try to do this when you renamed a single column; but we took it out,
probably because it risked unexpected failures due to index name
collisions.

I wonder if OP wouldn't be best advised to externalize his DDL where by simple editing would take care of the issue?
