Hmm, since this adds to RoleSpec, this change makes every place that uses that production also take CURRENT_ROLE, so we'd need to document in all those places. For example, alter_role.sgml, create_schema.sgml, etc. This also affects role_list (but maybe the docs for those are already vague enough -- eg. ALTER INDEX .. OWNED BY only says "role_name" with no further explanation, even though it does take "current_user".) -- Álvaro Herrera https://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services
