Thanks Guillaume! Thanks for your reply !

Now that, I got the reason.

I knew GRANT ON TABLE still works for sequence, but I think use GRANT ON SEQUENCE

in pgAdmin3 of newer version maybe much better. Because GRANT ON SEQUENCE is more clear,

and maybe that’s why developers create this syntax especially for sequence.

That’s only a suggestion, looking forward to hearing from you later~~

Well, we have this weird check in pgSequence.cpp:

if (!GetConnection()->BackendMinimumVersion(8, 2))¬
sql += GetGrant(wxT("arwdRxt"), wxT("TABLE ") + GetQuotedFullIdentifier());¬
else¬
sql += GetGrant(wxT("rwU"), wxT("TABLE ") + GetQuotedFullIdentifier());¬

This code is as old as 2006 (commit id 2ef0bfe6cb8eb9d2cf117ca654bbbe0d17d0a784), where Dave added "Add support for PostgreSQL 8.2's CONNECT privilege on databases, and USAGE on sequences".

Pretty sure he meant SEQUENCE instead of TABLE in the else part :)

Fixed.

Thanks for the report.
