On a one-over, yes, that looks correct and avoids the issue of running
in a user's schema.

It wouldn't hurt to add a comment as to why things are so different in
PG10 than other versions, ie:

/*
 * In PG10, sequence meta-data was moved into pg_sequence, so switch to
 * the pg_catalog schema instead of operating in a user schema and pull
 * the necessary meta-data from there.
 */

Thanks!

Stephen
