Yeah, it needs more work, which I figured out after actually hacking
together a patch for it and I've just not gotten back to it yet.

Thanks for offering to help! Once I've got an actual patch together
that works well enough to get through the regression tests, I'll
definitely let you know. The general premise still looks viable, but
the actual query needs to be reworked.

I certainly hope that works on 9.6, since that's when pg_init_privs was
added..

Presuming I can make it work, the idea would be to back-port it to 9.6
and 10, since pg_init_privs and this code was added in 9.6.
Thanks again!
