​What command? Both OWNED BY and OWNER TO are parts of the ALTER SEQUENCE
command and written and described on the page you were reading when you
​filled out the form.

Note that our current release is 9.5 with 10.0 in beta. Our search results
have a tendency to show old versions (you were reading 8.4) so ensuring
that you are on current stuff helps.

​Personally I tend to find well written prose and syntax specifications to
be sufficient but I don't doubt that examples are helpful. For better and
worse this is a freely available open-source product. We don't have a
mandate that every feature have 6 examples documented for its use. The
volume of questions raised about ALTER SEQUENCE is so low that the
motivation to dream up and add new examples just isn't there. If a patch
was submitted, though, it would likely be committed.
