Perhaps better to put these out towards the end of the dump, not right
after the creation of the object?  Or is that what you're doing?

I would envision the safest procedure as creating all objects, loading
all data, etc, then all ALTER OWNERs, then all GRANT/REVOKEs.

Not if you still own the table while loading into it (see above point).

However, this all assumes a complete dump/restore.  Consider data-only
restores.  Consider partial restores using pg_restore's options for
that.  What happens then?  It'd likely be appropriate to issue set
session auth during scenarios involving pre-existing objects.

Lack of round tuits, no doubt.
