This won't do what he wants. This will not grant access to objects contained
in the database, only a few specific privileges.

There is no single command that does this, but it isn't hard to write scripts
to do things like this. For each object type you want to grant access to,
you can query the catalogs to get a list of those objects and then generate
appropiate grant statements and execute them.
