Why not? won't initially_valid flag serve same purpose ?

I guess thats was added before initially_valid flag. As I said, in normal case gram.y take care of skip_validation &
initially_validvalues, if one is 'true' other will be 'false'.

This could be time consuming operation for big table, If I am pretty much sure that my constraint will be valid, simply
Icould set both flag(initially_valid & skip_validation) to true.
