I don't think there is any point in supporting this.  What FOR ALL 
TABLES was really supposed to mean was "everything you can get your 
hands on".  I think we should just redefine FOR ALL TABLES to mean that, 
maybe replace it with a different syntax.  If you want to exclude 
sequences for some reason, there is already a publication option for 
that.  And FOR ALL SEQUENCES by itself doesn't make any sense in practice.

Are there any other object types besides tables and sequences that we 
might want to logically-replicate in the future and whose possible 
syntax we should think about?  I can't think of anything.
