You mean for the CHECKPOINT command specifically, or for many commands?
If it only applies to CHECKPOINT, it seems like more net clutter than a
new predefined role.
But I don't see it generalizing to a lot of commands, either. I looked
at the list, and it's taking some creativity to think of more than a
couple other commands where it makes sense. Maybe LISTEN/NOTIFY? But
even then, there are three related commands: LISTEN, UNLISTEN, and
NOTIFY. Are those one privilege representing them all, two
(LISTEN/UNLISTEN, and NOTIFY), or three separate privileges?
