Ashley, why do you say that? I have been bitten by sql server enforced constraints before.
I had a situation where the constraints where stopping things being saved, but ruby was not catching the fact that things had broken and so was reporting that the save happened. Caused a real headache. Also, the mantra of DRY suggests that the constraints should be in one place. That one place being the model code. What is your take on it? Don't just say 'oh dear!' and leave it at that.
