There is a legitimate point in doing this, though, since the GRANT page
is already explaining how does psql display privileges. Maybe the right
solution is move that stuff all to the psql documentation, and alter the
GRANT page to list privileges in terms of their names rather than the
way psql displays them. (And of course add cross-links, so that it all
makes sense.)
