They don't. You are going to have to. This wasn't added to 6.5.1 either
but maybe in the next release? This is a GOOD REASON to use
transactions... when you delete something, make sure you delete all
references to it, or if there are references you want to preserve, don't
delete the item. If there is something wrong you can always roll back.
That said, Postgres does support the _keywords_ refers to so I put them in
my data model hoping for the future. (My saved text data model that is, I
don't think they have any effect at all on the created tables).
