+ <para>
+ You must own the large object to use <command>ALTER LARGE OBJECT</command>.
+ To alter the owner, you must also be a direct or indirect member of the new
+ owning role. (However, a superuser can alter any large object anyway.)
+ Currently, the only functionality is to assign a new owner, so both
+ restrictions always apply.
