Hi,

The new CREATE TEMPORARY privilege is a very good idea.
Unfortunately, when an user creates a temporary table, he can't write to
it if he doesn't also have the INSERT privilege. It would be much more
useful if an user were always allowed to write to its own private
temporary tables, regardless of his having the INSERT privilege or not.
Otherwise the CREATE TEMPORARY privilege loses much of its interest.
I want users to be able to create *and* write to temporary tables (this is
mandatory until MySQL has subqueries and the like, because users may have
to do complex statistics), but I do not want them to be able to mess with
public tables.

On a side note : I still have this corruption problem with backups made
with FLUSH TABLES WITH READ LOCK. Quite annoying.

Regards

Antoine.
