Обсуждение: Extending grant insert on tables to sequences
Hi, The idea of this patch is to avoid the need to make explicit grants on sequences owned by tables. This patch make: - GRANT INSERT ON TABLE extend to GRANT USAGE ON SEQUENCE (currval, nextval) - GRANT UPDATE ON TABLE extend to GRANT UPDATE ON SEQUENCE (nextval, setval) - GRANT SELECT ON TABLE extend to GRANT SELECT ON SEQUENCE (currval) comments? -- regards, Jaime Casanova Soporte y capacitación de PostgreSQL Guayaquil - Ecuador Cel.

What's the use case for extending SELECT on table to SELECT on sequence ?

I had a look at this patch and it looks good. The only thing that's not
clear to me is whether we have agreed we want this to be the default
behavior?
A quibble:

Wouldn't it be clearer to build a list with all the sequences owned by
the tables in istmt.objects, and then call ExecGrantStmt_oids() a single
time with the big list?
