Primary keys are defined as 'unique not null' even if they are
composite. So I believe postgres would not let you do that:
5.3.4. Primary Keys
Technically, a primary key constraint is simply a combination of a
unique constraint and a not-null constraint.
....
A primary key indicates that a column or group of columns can be used as
a unique identifier for rows in the table. (This is a direct consequence
of the definition of a primary key. Note that a unique constraint does
not, by itself, provide a unique identifier because it does not exclude
null values.) This is useful both for documentation purposes and for
client applications.
