Hmm.. the code is making the assumption that this ACL is at position 0
of the ACL list.
It would be quite nice if this message needs not be translated, because
it's the only message that's left for me currently, and even if I
understand what's about I can't find a good translation.

Yes. In fact something very similar appears in regproc.c, line 636:
if (nargs == 1)
ereport(ERROR,
(errcode(ERRCODE_UNDEFINED_PARAMETER),
errmsg("missing argument"),
errhint("Use NONE to denote the missing argument of a unary
operator.")));
