Dan Burkert commented on SENTRY-2371:
-------------------------------------
Clarification: our primary use-case will be to gather all of the privileges for
a specific user and table, and only occasionally will we need to gather all
privileges for a user across all tables. We should never need to gather all
privileges for all users across all objects, or gather all privileges for all
users across a specific object.
> Add a new thrift API for getting all privileges a user has

> SENTRY-2256 introduces an API to list the privileges directly assigned to a
> user. But there isn't an API to list all privileges a user has including the
> ones granted to the group the user is in. Such an API is important when
> clients need to find out all privilege a user has.
