Don't bother --- it's a really bad idea as designed anyway. owned_by
is not a column of a sequence relation and pretending that it is one
will just cause confusion.
I think the place that such information could most naturally be squeezed
into psql's \d commands would be to add another type of footer
information to \dt, eg
Table "foo.bar"...Indexes: "bari" ...Owned sequences: "baz" owned by col1 ...
If you really want to attach the information to the \d output for the
sequence instead of the table, consider a similar footer-style display
instead of making it look like something it's not.
