Laxman commented on HBASE-6188:
-------------------------------
In contrast to regular RDBMS notations, I considered all the above operations
as DDL. May be I coined a wrong word here.
AddColumn, DeleteColumn, DeleteTable, DisableTable, EnableTable, ModifyColumn,
ModifyTable
We have the following options now.
Approach #1: DDL operations requires "C"
Approach #2: DDL operations requires "A"
Approach #3: DDL operatoins requires either "C" or "A"
Personally I prefer to go with #1 as it makes it clean.
Note that above list of operations doesn't contain CreateTable which requires
"C".
So this another reason for my preference for #1.
> Remove the concept of table owner

> The table owner concept was a design simplification in the initial drop.
> First, the design changes under review means only a user with GLOBAL CREATE
> permission can create a table, which will probably be an administrator.
> Then, granting implicit permissions may lead to oversights and it adds
> unnecessary conditionals to our code. So instead the administrator with
> GLOBAL CREATE permission should make the appropriate grants at table create
> time.
