 I just realized how slow it is to add TopoGeometry objects in a
 TopoGeometry layer compared with updating any other field.

 I'm talking about 2/3 minutes versus subsecond time to set a text field
 for a table with less than 4000 rows.

 So I guess the layer CHECK constraints are slowing things down.

 This ticket is to review that and see if it can be improved.
 If it cannot, at least document what a good workaround is before running
 the `UPDATE ... SET topogeom = toTopoGeom` mantra
