Maybe that's the problem here; I still thought that we were planning
on changing RLS in this regard, but it actually seems we changed
course, looking at the 9.5 open items list.

I would say that that's a clear divergence between RLS and column
privileges. That might be fine, but it doesn't match my prior
understanding of RLS (or, more accurately, how it was likely to change
pre-release).

If that's the design that we want for RLS across the board, then I'm
happy to defer to that decision.
