James Taylor commented on PHOENIX-1271:
---------------------------------------

+1 to the idea. It's a bit tricky to implement, though, because the query is 
run over only columns, not table rows, and the column rows do not know whether 
the table is multi-tenant. Here are some solutions I can think of:
- store isMultiTenant attribute on the tenantID column (it's only on the table 
row currently).
- do a self join to the table row for the column query (maybe overkill?)
- don't filter table rows on the column query, but filter then client-side 
maintaining a bit of state to use for the columns that will follow in the 
result set.

> Column metadata doesn't hide tenant column on tenant-specific connections.

> connection.getMetaData().getColumns(...) always returns all columns.
> For multi-tenant tables it would make more sense if the first PK (the 
> tenant-id column) would be excluded. If we do this the number of columns 
> returned would match the number of columns you get when executing a "select 
> *" query.
