Hello,

CREATE TABLE foo (id bigserial primary key, fname text);
GRANT INSERT ON foo to jd;
INSERT INTO foo(fname) VALUES ('Joshua');

This will fail, because I don't have permissions on the sequence 
foo_id_seq which is a dependency created
by PostgreSQL. It seems that if bigserial is the datatype the grant 
should automatically cascade.

This behavior would make sense if I did it the long way, where I used 
bigint and then modified the column
with ALTER TABLE after the fact.
