Redaction is now a feature available in other databases. I guess its possible its all smoke and mirrors, but thats why we discuss stuff before we build it.
I googled for Oracle Data redaction, and found "General Usage guidelines":
General Usage Guidelines * Oracle Data Redaction is not intended to protect against attacks by privileged database users who run ad hoc queries directly against the database. * Oracle Data Redaction is not intended to protect against users who run exhaustive SQL queries that attempt to determine the actual values by inference.
So it's not actually suitable for the example you gave. I don't think we want this feature...
