serial as FK ?

Hi there,

what's wrong to use SERIAL as FK without explicit PRIMARY KEY or UNIQUE ?

qq=# create table t1( id serial);
NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE will create implicit sequence "t1_id_seq" for "serial" column "t1.id"
CREATE TABLE
qq=# create table t2( id2 int4 references t1(id));
ERROR:  there is no unique constraint matching given keys for referenced table "t1"

btw, Richard, I noticed this problem when looked into your example database
