Hi, It appears that 16.0 improved some of the checks in ALTER ROLE. Previously, it was possible to do the following (assuming current_user is a bootstrap user):
``` ALTER ROLE current_user NOSUPERUSER ``` As of 16.0, this produces an error: ``` ERROR: permission denied to alter role DETAIL: The bootstrap user must have the SUPERUSER attribute. ``` The attached patch documents this behavior by providing a bit more clarification to the following statement: "Database superusers can change any of these settings for any role." -- Y.
