I do agree the spec often feels laconic, not only here but in other places too. Expanding it, with ample explanation and reasoning, would result in a different document (implementation guide), much longer than the spec. However, the spec details are sufficient for a secure implementation. In this example, a reader can use either a row group counter (the term "ordinal" has a well-defined meaning) or the thrift value; either one will support the intended security model. Still, since other ordinals (column and page) don't have a thrift duplicate, I can add a clarification text that makes this point explicit. Will send a patch. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service. To respond to the message, please log on to GitHub and use the URL above to go to the specific comment.
