The logic of fix looks good. A few comments:

1)
Note
Sequence synchronization requires the publisher to be running
PostgreSQL 19 or later.

This note appears to be at odd position in
logical-replication-sequences.html. Please have a look at html and
move it to end of that section if you agree.

2)
+     from the tables themselves.  Note that
+     <link linkend="sql-altersubscription-params-refresh-sequences">
+     <command>ALTER SUBSCRIPTION ... REFRESH SEQUENCES</command></link> only
+     re-synchronizes sequences that are already known to the subscription
+     (see <xref linkend="logical-replication-sequences"/>); in particular, it
+     requires the publisher to be running <productname>PostgreSQL</productname>
+     19 or later. Before relying on it to prepare for a switchover or
+     failover, confirm that the publisher's version supports sequence
+     replication and that the sequences of interest are already known to the
+     subscription.

Do you think above is necessary? At subscription creation time, a
publisher running a version earlier than PostgreSQL 19 cannot have a
publication containing all sequences, so the subscription cannot have
such sequences known to it. Furthermore, ALTER SUBSCRIPTION to change
publisher-connection will report an error if the required
prerequisites are not met. Therefore, asking users to separately
verify the publisher version and sequence membership seems redundant
to me.

3)
+bool
+HasSubscriptionSequences(Oid subid)

Do you think we can resuse HasSubscriptionTables instead of
duplicating the complete code? We can have
HasSubscriptionRelations(subid, bool *has_tables, bool
*has_sequences)) Or is it not worth?

thanks
