If you're doing this to have a custom ordering of your data, consider adding
another int column without PK so you can change whatever you want, and keep
an unique way to access (an identify) your data even if it has been
moved...
In my case I wanted to sort my row freely, my first tough was to use the
already existing id (serial PK) column and change it. That worked fine
until I tryied to move a row without freeing the destination first... I
added a new column and changed my "order by" to match its name.
If this can help,
