Re: How to get whether user has ALL permissions on table?

Hey Kretschemer, the has_table_privilege function returns true in following
situation as well which is wrong.

techdb=> select pc.relname, pc.relacl from pg_class pc, pg_namespace pn
where pc.relnamespace=pn.oid and pn.nspname='techdb' and
pc.relname='techtable';
relname | relacl
--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------
techtable | {postgres=arwdDxt/postgres,=ar/postgres,user1=ar/postgres}
(1 row)
techdb=> SELECT has_table_privilege('user1', 'techdb.techtable', 'SELECT,
UPDATE, DELETE, TRUNCATE, REFERENCES, TRIGGER');
has_table_privilege
---------------------
t
(1 row)
techdb=>
Note that user1 has only insert and select permissions on techtable but
still has_table returns true for all permissions. Am I missing anything?

Thanks,
Dipti
