Well, the examples I've looked at fit in 80 columns, but it's true that
all the identifiers involved were pretty short. The alternative I think
you're suggesting is
Access privileges
Schema | Name | Type | Access privileges
--------+------+-------+---------------------------
public | foo | table | postgres=arwdDxt/postgres
: joe=r/postgres
: bar:
: joe=a/postgres
: baz:
: joe=w/postgres
(1 row)
which is definitely more compact horizontally, but I think it's harder
to follow. It's also *less* compact vertically, which is not a
negligible consideration either.
