Well 5.6 goes as far as to give mention about WITH GRANT OPTION, so I don't think we'd be going too deep to give a pointer regarding default ACLs as well. I don't think we need a fully detailed explanation of default ACLs here, just a brief mention and a pointer to the reference page. > But if you want to work it over, feel free to send in > a docs patch.
