The patch does these: table, view, index, sequence, schema, type, domain,
and conversion. The reason is that these are all dealt with using the same
bit of the grammar, and the first 4 are pretty much completely done by the
same code.

I think anything else will have to be done individually, although the
pattern can be copied.

Perhaps we should take bids on what should/should not be covered.

cheers
