These are the only replies I received. Am I to conclude

Nil reports, as in: "Generally, we do not use PostgreSQL's
GRANT PRIVILEGE to implement detailed user ACLs", would be
most welcome. If instead you are using GRANT PRIVILEGE
and have not responded, a simple "We (often, occasionally,
seldom) use detailed GRANT PRIVILEGE based user ACLs" is
sufficient.
I really want to get a sense of how prevalent using GRANT
PRIVILEGE, beyond the minimum required, is. And this
seems like a very good place to discover it. Again, please
reply off-list if you wish.
