You're an editor now. I think your proposed query will fail if you have
a default sequence in a different schema than the table it's default
for; watch out for that case. Also, I propose that instead of || and
quote_foo(), the function "format" and cast of the pg_class.oid column to
regclass result in easier-to-read code.
Thanks
