The Cloud docs called the users from
serverpod cloud db user createsuperusers. They can read and write data, but they can't create or change tables, disable triggers, or setsession_replication_role, so standard advice for superusers fails on them.scloud dbintro: "create and reset database users".The CLI help text still says "superuser". It is tracked in serverpod/serverpod#5768, and the generated CLI reference will follow once the CLI changes.
