Обсуждение: server vs foreign server inconsistency

Hi,

A few days ago i was wondering why we use CREATE/DROP SERVER but then
when we want to GRANT/REVOKE we need to use FOREIGN SERVER.

of course options are:

1) modify both to accept both forms
2) modify one of them to accept both forms and use that way in all our
examples in docs
3) do nothing at all

IMHO i think 3 is not acceptable because it's annoying

opinions?

Because the SQL standard says so.
