All constraints are named like that already, and NOT NULL constraints just inherited the same idea. The names are <table>_<column>_not_null for NOT NULL constraints. pg_dump goes great lengths to avoid printing constraint names when they have this pattern. I do not want these constraint names cluttering the output either. That's why I propose moving them to a new \d++ command, where they will only bother you if you absolutely need them. But so far I have only one vote supporting that idea. -- Álvaro Herrera 48°01'N 7°57'E — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/
