Do you think the commands should just silently do nothing? That seems
strange to me. I like giving a NOTICE (not WARNING though, those guys
should be changed).
I guess the best argument for putting out a notice is that there's some
chance the user is making a mistake, eg, telling you SET NOT NULL when
what he really wanted to do was DROP NOT NULL. If that argument doesn't
impress people then I suppose being silent is the thing to do.
