Well, the relevant point here is that there's little or no likelihood
that we'll ever care to support direct UPDATE on sequences. This is
exactly not the case for foreign tables. So I would argue that GRANT
should handle them like views; certainly not be even more strict than
it is for sequences.
IOW, yeah, let's drop these two checks.
