What I'm arguing for is a syntax in which the question doesn't even arise, ie, a CONSTRAINT doesn't reference an existing index at all. If that's not possible for whatever reason, then I think that disallowing multiple references isn't going to buy any simplicity. regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
