I think after fixing the comments in my previous email, the rels list
will become the same for this function but surely the extra parameter
is required for giving object-specific errors.

I think if we write individual functions then we need to add new
functions as and when we add new object types like sequences. The
other idea could be to keep a single function like now say
CheckObjSchemaNotAlreadyInPublication and instead of the bool
parameter as the patch has now, we can keep an enum parameter
"add_obj_type" for 'rel', 'schema', 'sequence'. We can either use
exiting enum PublicationObjSpecType or define a new one for the same.
