Yes, this might make some sense. (Keep in mind that db CONNECT
privileges were invented after REASSIGN OWNED). Perhaps we could make
exceptions -- in which case it would be good to investigate which
exceptions we need (i.e. for all object types that we support, which
ones we should be caring about and which ones we should ignore).
I'm stuck in Canuckistan for a week still, so I expect your detailed
proposal by when I get back home ;-)
