inheritance and foreign keys

From

Do inheritance and foreign keys work together?  I can't seem to get
them to.

Specifically, I want to create a table A which has sub-tables A*, and
I want to create a table B which references the primary key from A*,
not from A.

Is this possible?

I'm afraid not yet...
Anyone can foresee when the supporting code  (inherited
primary keys) will be available? (Anyone is developing it?)
