Thanks Álvaro, that's exactly the point I am coming at. The previous
version of the patch was breaking an existing flow.

Thanks for the new version. I have looked at 0001, and this looks
acceptable for me in this shape.

In the set of things that could be improved, but I am of course not
asking about those being addressed in this patch... Things could be
made more consistent for ExecGrantStmt_oids, objectNamesToOids,
objectsInSchemaToOids, SetDefaultACL and
ExecAlterDefaultPrivilegesStmt for the switch/case handlings.

I have not looked at 0002 in details.
