Yes...
postgres=# INSERT INTO animals (id, animal, age) VALUES (DEFAULT,
'okapi', NULL);
ERROR: null value in column "id" violates not-null constraint
DETAIL: Failing row contains (null, okapi, null).
CONTEXT: Remote SQL command: INSERT INTO public.animals(id, animal,
age) VALUES ($1, $2, $3)
Out of curiosity, is there any way to explicitly force a foreign
DEFAULT with column-omission?
