Well, as soon as the patch for cataloging not-null constraints as check
constraints is available, it will be possible to create views that
depend functionally on check constraints. Then you'll have the same
problem there.
It's also not clear why this patch only supports foreign keys and check
constraints. Maybe that's what was convenient to implement, but it's
not a principled solution to the general issue that constraints can be
involved in dependencies.
