Thanks a lot for looking into this patch.

I have fixed the problems you saw, and improved the patch as you suggested.

Besides, I noticed that the tab completion for "ALTER DEFAULT PRIVILEGES ...
GRANT/REVOKE ..." missed "CREATE". Fix it in 0001 patch.

And commit e3ce2de09 supported GRANT ... WITH INHERIT ..., but there's no tab
completion for it. Add this in 0002 patch.

Please see the attached patches.
