This reminds me of the quite powerful PatchMatch algorithm [1]. Is it related?

Also note how PatchMatch can work with constraints.

PatchMatch is an algorithm to quickly... match similar patches in an image, it is used in a lot of texture synthesis algos. See my answer to fitzwatermellow for the difference between texture synthesis and WFC. So yes, it's related.

Photoshop's implementation of PatchMatch handles constraints perfectly, yes.
