Notes
- Constraints on foreign tables (such as CHECK>

- core PostgreSQL> system, and most foreign data wrappers
- do not attempt to enforce them either; that is, the constraint is
- simply assumed to hold true. There would be little point in such
- enforcement since it would only apply to rows inserted or updated via
- the foreign table, and not to rows modified by other means, such as
- directly on the remote server. Instead, a constraint attached to a
- foreign table should represent a constraint that is being enforced by
- the remote server.

Some special-purpose foreign data wrappers might be the only access
mechanism for the data they access, and in that case it might be
- appropriate for the foreign data wrapper itself to perform constraint
- enforcement. But you should not assume that a wrapper does that
- unless its documentation says so.
