IMHI, while we could allow view creation, it is unlikely users will perform operations critical enough to require views or stored procedures on the CLT. For the initial version, providing SELECT, DELETE, and TRUNCATE permissions should be sufficient. We can introduce support for views and user- or system-created indexes in subsequent releases. -- Regards, Dilip Kumar Google
