Re: [HACKERS] column-level privilege

[Andrew Hammond]

 I am a PostgreSQL lover at China, I'd like to know when the column-level 
 privilege can be added to a release version of PostgreSQL? and is there 
 someone who is working on the problem?

You can often achieve similar effects with VIEWs and RULEs / TRIGGERs.

It would certainly be a welcome feature, but there are no concrete plans for 
it yet.

There was someone fooling with it awhile ago, but we've not heard from
him lately --- IIRC he was last seen trying to deal with the fact that
parts of the system assume pg_attribute tuples are fixed-width.  Check
the archives.
