Sure. We wrote a stored proc to do that and it could be really nice to
have it by defaut in the table definition.
Something like:
Incoming foreign keys: "name_of_the_fkey" (column of this table) REFERENCED BY
table(columns of the other table)
could be nice.
Not sure about the title of the section. Another problem is that this
syntax is not based on valid SQL syntax.
