Seems reasonable.

Not sure if that 'goto error_return;' handles this correctly, but it
would seem like you're missing the possibility that a sequence isn't
owned by any table/column..?  Or that it could be depended upon by more
than one table/column?  Both of those happen and are perfectly valid
situations for a sequence to be in..
