Table references are checked according to the owner of the view, but use
in a view does not change the execution context for function or operator
calls. This is how it's always been done.

Changing it would be a major definitional change (and a pretty major
implementation change too). It might be better, but please don't
pre-judge the issue by labeling it a bug.
