Hi,
During reading Albe's patch for FDW validator attached to "Bug in
SQL/MED?" posted to pgsql-hackers[1], I noticed that neither ALTER
commands nor USER MAPPING is mentioned in the description of FDW
validator in "Writing A Foreign Data Wrapper"[2]. The validator
function is also called for ALTER commands and USER MAPPING
manipulation, if any FDW option remains.
FYI, Albe's patch is for calling validator even if no option remains.

Please find attached a patch which adds a mention of ALTER and USER MAPPING.
Regards,
