[database.]schema: Database and schema. The default schema is public. If you specify a database, it must be the current database.
projection: The name of the projection associated with the comment.
comment: Specifies the text of the comment to add. If a comment already exists for this projection, the comment you enter here overwrites the previous comment.
Comments can be up to 8192 characters in length. If a comment exceeds that limitation, Vertica truncates the comment and alerts the user with a message.
NULL: Removes an existing comment.

Non-superuser: object owner
