The new sentence is fine in isolation, but this doesn't feel like
a great spot to put it. The preceding several lines are all about
copying of objects within the database, and this isn't. In
particular, the antecedent of "it" is unclear and is different
from what "it" means in the immediately preceding sentence.

It might be best to split the thing out into its own para?

</para>

+ <para>
+ However, <command>CREATE DATABASE</command> does not copy
+ database-level <command>GRANT</command> permissions attached to the
