As shown by Patrick TJ McPhee, it does not work:
tests=> create table x (
tests(> name TEXT NOT NULL,
tests(> address INET,
tests(> CONSTRAINT na UNIQUE (name, address)
tests(> );
NOTICE: CREATE TABLE / UNIQUE will create implicit index "na" for table "x"
CREATE TABLE
tests=> INSERT INTO x (name) values ('foobar');
INSERT 45380 1
tests=> INSERT INTO x (name) values ('foobar');
INSERT 45381 1
tests=> INSERT INTO x (name) values ('foobar');
INSERT 45382 1
tests=> INSERT INTO x (name) values ('foobar');
INSERT 45383 1
tests=> select * from x;
name | address
--------+---------
foobar |
foobar |
foobar |
foobar |
(4 rows)
