Hi
I just stumbled over the following behaviour, introduced with 8.3, and
wondered if this is by design or an oversight.
If you define a domain over some existing type, constrain it to
non-null values, and use that domain as a field type in a table
definition, it seems to be impossible to

No, this was in 8.2.

What seems worse is that it still fails even if you declare the domain

Hmm, that seems like it could be a bug. We don't currently consider
that a rowtype includes the parent table's defaults or constraints.
But if we are going

Ah, sorry - I'm porting an app from 8.1 straight to 8.3, and blindly
