Hi,
Looking at this thread I was thinking about the FDW. Does role
pg_read_all_data will allow to execute pg_dump with
--include-foreign-data option? If this is the case how about priviledge
on fdw and foreign server? If this is the behavior we want I guess that
the modification should be applied to pg_foreign_data_wrapper_aclmask()
and pg_foreign_server_aclmask() too.
Best regards,
