Seems like this would be a bit better:

------
All the actions, when acting on a single table and not using the ALL IN
TABLESPACE form, except RENAME and SET SCHEMA, can be combined into a
list of multiple alterations to be applied.
------

I note that we say 'in parallel', but given that we have actual parallel
operations now, we should probably shy away from using that except in
cases where we actually mean operations utilizing multiple parallel
processes.

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Stephen
