Seems down-right thoughtful of us to allow users to change their own defaults instead of forcing them to always change things on-the-fly or bug a DBA to change the default for them.

It seems that if a super user changes the search path with ALTER USER/ROLE, then the user itself should not (assuming not an elevated privilege) should not be able to change it. Again, I get being able to do it with SET but a normal user shouldn't be able to reset a super user determined setting.
