Hi, Sho

Thank you for testing the patch and for your feedback.

I've updated the patch to also handle the `REVOKE GRANT OPTION FOR CREATE` case,
so it now reaches the same privilege-completion rule and suggests `ON` as expected.

Attached is the updated patch.

Regards,
Haruna

Hi Haruna,

I tested the patch and confirmed that `GRANT CREATE` and `REVOKE CREATE` now complete to `ON` as expected, including lowercase input.

I also found that `REVOKE GRANT OPTION FOR CREATE` should reach the same privilege-completion rule, but the earlier `TailMatches("CREATE")` branch still intercepts it and offers CREATE object types instead of `ON`.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to cover this form in the same patch. What do you think?

Thanks,
Sho Ito

Hi,

While testing psql tab completion, I noticed that the generic CREATE
completion rule is triggered after GRANT CREATE and REVOKE CREATE.

This results in irrelevant CREATE object type suggestions being offered
in those contexts.

I created a patch to exclude GRANT CREATE and REVOKE CREATE from the
generic CREATE completion rule.

Regards,

Haruna Miwa
