That's what I did, except I had to cascade to the foreign keys and then
recreate them too. And you can't really recreate a primary key constraint, you
just get a unique index which I think is equivalent.
And that's another wishlist item. It would be nice to be able to disable
constraints without dropping them and without poking around in catalog tables
manually.
Ie, it would be nice to be able to do
alter table foo disable constraint "$1"
and then later do
alter table foo enable constraint "$1"
and have postgres optionally recheck the constraint or not. It would be a lot
safer than potentially accidentally recreating the constraint incorrectly. And
a lot safer than poking around in the catalog tables.
