Partitioned tables vs GRANT

Apparently INSERT and SELECT on the parent partitioned table skip normal
acl checks on the partitions. Is that intended behavior?

8<---------------------------
test=# create user part_test;
CREATE ROLE
test=#
test=# create table t1 (id int) partition by range ((id % 4));
CREATE TABLE
test=# create table t1_0 partition of t1 for values from (0) to (1);
CREATE TABLE
test=# create table t1_1 partition of t1 for values from (1) to (2);
CREATE TABLE
test=# create table t1_2 partition of t1 for values from (2) to (3);
CREATE TABLE
test=# create table t1_3 partition of t1 for values from (3) to (4);
CREATE TABLE
test=# grant all on TABLE t1 to part_test;
GRANT
test=# set session authorization part_test ;
SET
test=> select current_user;
current_user
