Here's what I have staged for commit.  I didn't understand the reasoning
behind not giving pg_write_all_data privileges on large objects.  Your
commit message mentions that "granting write access would imply write
permissions on a system catalog" (which I assume is referring to
pg_largeobject), but if granting UPDATE on a large object is sufficient to
allow updating portions of that catalog, then I see no reason to be so
strict with pg_write_all_data.  It still doesn't allow updating the catalog
directly.
