I think that should work as long as you aren't going around making your
own constraint triggers.
I believe you can get info from pg_constraint as well in recent versions,
maybe something like:
select pg_constraint.conname, c.relname, c2.relname from
pg_constraint,pg_class c, pg_class c2 where contype='f' and conrelid=c.oid
and confrelid=c2.oid and c.relname='objective';
You can also get some other information that's hard to get from the
triggers like the referential actions (pg_constraint.confupdtype and
confdeltype).
