As David-G appears to express concern in upthread, I don't think a
direct Japanese translation from "rolename from rolename" works well,
as the "from" needs accompanying verb. I, as a Japanese speaker, I
prefer a more non-sentence-like notation, similar to David's
suggestion but with slight differences:
"pg_read_all_stats (grantor: postgres, inherit, set)"
In this form, it confuses me that 'postgres' and 'inherit, set' look
like a common list.
Come to think of this, I recalled a past discussion in which we
concluded that translating punctuation marks appearing between a
variable number of items within list expressions should be avoided...
Thus, I'd like to propose to use an ACL-like notation, which doesn't
need translation.

It's very tempting to do so. But I don't like this approach. Showing
membership options as an ACL-like column will be confusing.
Even in your example, my first reaction is that
pg_execute_server_program is available to public.
(As for the general patterns, we can also consider combining three
options into one column, like pg_class.reloptions.)
So, yet another way to discuss:
pg_read_all_stats(inherit,set/horiguti)
pg_execute_server_program(empty/postgres)
One more point. Grants without any option probably should be prohibited
as useless. But this is for a new thread.
