grant.sgml says that

   the default privileges granted to PUBLIC are as follows: CONNECT and
 
   CREATE TEMP TABLE for databases; EXECUTE privilege for functions;
   and USAGE privilege for languages.

But types also have the USAGE privilege for PUBLIC by default:

test=> CREATE TYPE bug_status AS ENUM ('new', 'open', 'closed');
CREATE TYPE
test=> GRANT USAGE ON TYPE bug_status TO duff;
GRANT
test=> REVOKE USAGE ON TYPE bug_status FROM duff;
REVOKE
test=> \dT+ bug_status
                         List of data types
 Schema |    Name    | ... |  Owner  | Access privileges | ...
--------+------------+-----+---------+-------------------+-----
 public | bug_status |     | laurenz | =U/laurenz       +| 
        |            |     |         | laurenz=U/laurenz | 
(1 row)

Hence I propose the attached documentation patch.

Yours,
Laurenz Albe
