The positive modulus result returned by NUMERICs might be considered
inaccurate, in one sense.
-* %Disallow changing default expression of a SERIAL column?
+* %Disallow changing DEFAULT expression of a SERIAL column?
* %Disallow ALTER SEQUENCE changes for SERIAL sequences because pg_dump
does not dump the changes
* Fix data types where equality comparison isn't intuitive, e.g. box
* Make CLUSTER preserve recently-dead tuples per MVCC requirements
* Add SQL99 WITH clause to SELECT
* Add SQL99 WITH RECURSIVE to SELECT
+* Add DEFAULT .. AS OWNER so permission checks are done as the table
+ owner
+
+ This would be useful for SERIAL nextval() calls and CHECK constraints.
