After researching again I have come with following syntax to select all
table with specific privilege (SELECT/INSERT/UPDATE..)to current user.
SELECT relname FROM pg_class WHERE pg_table_is_visible(oid) AND relname !~ '^pg_' AND has_table_privilege
(oid,'INSERT');
Is this the best way to do it? Is there any way to execute such
a statement for any user? In this case such queries will most
likely be executed by a super user.
regards,
Brijesh

Subject: [INTERFACES] Filtering tables based on user privileges
Hi!
I have a need to filter out tables that have specfic privileges for a user.
For example, select
all tables where user 'joe' has 'select' and 'insert' privileges. Can I
somehow filter
that at SQL level or will I have to get all non-system rows from pg_class
and filter it
one by one? How can I use whre clause against aclitem[] array?
Regards,

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command (send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to
majordomo@postgresql.org)
