Now I'm under describing the new chapter.
http://git.postgresql.org/gitweb?p=users/kaigai/sepgsql.git;a=blob;f=doc/src/sgml/esp.sgml;hb=devel/seclabel

However, I'm wondering whether the topic about security hooks and some
others are appropriate for the "III. Server Administration" part.

Perhaps, it is a good idea a new section at the last of "Database Roles
and Privileges" which introduce a fact that PostgreSQL allows plugins
to make access control decision, and a new chapter in the "VII. Internals"
part.

How about the idea?

Thanks,
