I'm missing what's wrong with a wild-card GRANT syntax for this
case.
Without a major change in the way we do permissions, it will not
work prospectively. We have no way ATM to store permissions for an
object that does not currently exist.
There have been previous discussions of prospective permissions
changes. Are we restarting them here?
*shrug*
It's not on the TODO list. I recall it being raised from time to time
but I certainly don't recall a consensus that it should be done, nor
how, so if you're implying that such a thing is a settled decision I
suspect you're not entirely correct. Of course, my memory has been known
to have errors ...
