   The view <code class="literal">usage_privileges</code> identifies
   <code class="literal">USAGE</code> privileges granted on various kinds of
   objects to a currently enabled role or by a currently enabled role.
   In <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>, this currently applies to
   collations, domains, foreign-data wrappers, foreign servers, and sequences.  There is one
   row for each combination of object, grantor, and grantee.
  </p><p>
   Since collations do not have real privileges
   in <span class="productname">PostgreSQL</span>, this view shows implicit
   non-grantable <code class="literal">USAGE</code> privileges granted by the
   owner to <code class="literal">PUBLIC</code> for all collations.  The other
   object types, however, show real privileges.
  </p><p>
   In PostgreSQL, sequences also support <code class="literal">SELECT</code>
   and <code class="literal">UPDATE</code> privileges in addition to
   the <code class="literal">USAGE</code> privilege.  These are nonstandard and therefore
   not visible in the information schema.
