I just had a confusing moment trying to figure out why my roles
weren't creating tables the way I was expecting them to. I didn't
understand what the `target_role` parameter did. No matter how I try
to read this page, I can't see an explanation for that parameter:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/sql-alterdefaultprivileges.html
I propose an explanation like the following be added to the
`target_role` parameter:
This is the role that will create objects with altered default
privileges. Note that changes in default privileges aren't
inherited, so altering the default privileges of created objects
for a parent role will not change the default privileges of
objects created by inherited roles.
