No, it wouldn't.  The point of CREATEROLE is to allow user creation
and deletion to be done by a role that's less than full superuser.
If we changed it like that, then you'd be right back at needing
superuser for very routine role creations.  That's *not* an
improvement, even if it somehow fit better into the OP's desired
security model (which he hasn't explained).
