Should we make some reference to ALTER TABLE on the the sequence 
page?  A sequence owner is changed via:

  alter table forums_auth_id_seq owner to phorum;

That's not intuitive unless you know the innards.  We need to point 
the users there.

There are references to sequences within the ALTER TABLE 
documentation ("This form changes the owner of the table, index, 
sequence or view to the specified user.") but you have to know about 
it in the first place.

I think it is a good idea.
Providing an example is better.
