I also agree. BTW, can we change pub_obj_type_list to
pub_all_obj_type_list to be more explicit about this variant? If you
agree then we can make similar changes
(pub_obj_type->pub_all_obj_type) at the following places as well:

+ * CREATE PUBLICATION FOR ALL pub_obj_type [, ...] [WITH options]
+ *
+ * pub_obj_type is one of:
+ *
