Edward Capriolo commented on HIVE-78:
-------------------------------------
All those points make sense.
>>1. I am not sure what AS is used for.
I am thinking AS is the way to name the PermissionSet. Imagine a rule like this:
{noformat}
GRANT WITH_GRANT,RC, ON '*' TO 'USER1','USER2' AS my_permission
{noformat}
At some point 'USER3' might become an administrator. It would be nice to issue
a command like:
{noformat}
ALTER GRANT my_permission add USER 'USER3'
{noformat}
It also makes the grant self documenting.
