is it going to stay that way? i find it actually worse than 8.3
behaviour:

(depesz(at)[local]:5840) 11:43:40 [depesz]
# \l
List of databases
Name | Owner | Encoding | Collation | Ctype | Access privileges
-----------+----------+----------+-------------+-------------+-------------------
depesz | depesz | UTF8 | pl_PL.UTF-8 | pl_PL.UTF-8 |
postgres | pgdba | UTF8 | pl_PL.UTF-8 | pl_PL.UTF-8 |
template0 | pgdba | UTF8 | pl_PL.UTF-8 | pl_PL.UTF-8 | =c/pgdba
: pgdba=CTc/pgdba
template1 | pgdba | UTF8 | pl_PL.UTF-8 | pl_PL.UTF-8 | pgdba=CTc/pgdba
: =c/pgdba
test | depesz | UTF8 | pl_PL.UTF-8 | pl_PL.UTF-8 |
(7 rows)

do we really have to introduce newlines even when it would (without any problem) fit in single line?

I mean - I udnerstand that if the grants are long, and complex - it makes sense
to display them like this, displaying extra lines just for superuser privileges
looks weird.

Best regards,

depesz
