Description:

This throws an "ERROR: must be superuser to create a job for another role"
SELECT cron.schedule_in_database(
    'refresh_mv',
    '30 5 * * *',
    'REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW schema.my_view;',
    'my-db',
    current_user,  -- or specified as 'my_user'
    true
);
but this will work, and schedule the job as current_user:
SELECT cron.schedule_in_database(
    'refresh_mv',
    '30 5 * * *',
    'REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW schema.my_view;',
    'my-db'
);
seems unintended and extremely confusing
