Hi,

I know a while ago someone posted a patch to support this:
http://blog.2ndquadrant.com/postgresql-9-3-development-array-element-foreign-keys/
but it seems that it has not made it as of 9.5.

Is anyone aware of why it wasn't already included / if it is planned for it
to be in a (near) future release?

According to the thread at
/messages/by-id/1343842863.5162.4.camel@greygoo.devise-it.lan
it was bounced back for rework because of serious semantic and performance
deficiencies. Since that was four years ago and nothing new has been
submitted, I wouldn't hold my breath.
