The data you're after *is* available in the extended fields of that error:

db=# \errverbose
ERROR:  23514: column "col" of table "testtable" contains values that violate the new constraint
SCHEMA NAME:  test
TABLE NAME:  testtable
COLUMN NAME:  col
LOCATION:  validateDomainConstraint, typecmds.c:2750

We've had multiple conversations about whether to include objects' schema
names in the primary error message text, and so far the answer continues
to be "no".  There seem to be more people who would find it to be clutter
than would find it to be useful.  Certainly it wouldn't make sense to
change that style decision for just this one message.
