Seems I was totally wrong. pgAdmin supports default values for columns
in views since quite some time (at least 1.12). It doesn't use the ALTER
VIEW statement, but the ALTER TABLE one. I don't think we really need to
change this right now. It works and that's good enough for me.

Can you check your release and see if you have the ALTER TABLE
statement? it should be after the ALTER TABLE that sets the owner.
