!    SQL specifies that <literal>BEFORE DELETE</literal> triggers on cascaded
!    deletes fire <emphasis>after</> the cascaded <literal>DELETE</> completes.
!    The <productname>PostgreSQL</productname> behavior is for <literal>BEFORE
!    DELETE</literal> to always fire before the delete action, even a cascading
!    one.  This is considered more consistent.  There is also unpredictable
!    behavior when <literal>BEFORE</literal> triggers modify rows that are later
!    to be modified by referential actions.  This can lead to contraint violations
!    or stored data that does not honor the referential constraint.
