Thanks for that. I'm not sure how my test regime managed to miss either. 
I will work on that.

Yeah.

Well, the trouble is that the database test runs a bunch of alter and 
revoke statements on the created database, that we probably don't want 
to persist on the existing regression database. I could see an argument 
for converting this to a TAP test that would only be run once, given our 
current very profligate running of the core regression suite. That goes 
doubly for the tablespace test, which could also probably use ALTER 
TABLESPACE instead of creating a bunch of tablespaces and then dropping 
them.
