Also, it's not clear why it should be okay that the new type of
ephemeral RTEs introduced don't have permissions checks. There are
currently cases where the user cannot see data that they inserted
themselves (e.g., through RETURNING), on the theory that a before row
trigger might have modified the final contents of the tuple in a way
that the original inserter isn't supposed to know details about.

As the INSERT docs say, "Use of the RETURNING clause requires SELECT
privilege on all columns mentioned in RETURNING". Similarly, the
excluded.* pseudo-relation requires select privilege (on the
corresponding target relation columns) in order to be usable by ON
CONFLICT DO UPDATE.
