We can go back to having a pg_checkpoint predefined role that is only used for the CHECKPOINT command. The only real argument against that was a general sense of clutter, but I wasn't entirely convinced of that. If we have a specialized command, we have all kinds of clutter associated with that; a predefined role doesn't add much additional clutter. Regards, Jeff Davis
