This can't be created consistently using the CREATE TABLE foo (bar
serial) syntax, instead the column default syntax would need to be used.
I've put this on the TODO list, we'd need some discussion what reverse
engineering we really should show in such cases. This also has to
correspond with our column dialog, which will add pg_depend
automatically if adding a serial to an existing table (thus mimicking
the CREATE TABLE ... SERIAL stuff).
