I personally find more uses for the normal uniqueness property of NULL, but it’s always nice to have more freedom to specify the constraints that are useful for your application.
I recently used this and it’s a great idea if you can’t go to higher normal forms.
Unfortunately REPLICA IDENTITY cannot use this kind of index; it complains about nullable columns, even though it should theoretically be OK.

I’d post that on the mailing list, rather than here, but please let us know if you find out. :)
