can be performance issue.

Important question is a relation assertations and exceptions. Is it only
shortcut for exception or some different?

I think that most data integrity issues can be handled by a well designed database schema that uses UNIQUE, NOT NULL, REFERENCES and CHECK constraints. Assertions are usually found inside of complex code constructs to check values of local variables. I don't think it is even a good idea to implement assertions that can query arbitrary data.
