My feeling is that the name-based variants of has_table_privilege should
perform downcasing and truncation of the supplied strings before trying
to use them as tablename or username; see get_seq_name in
backend/commands/sequence.c for a model. (BTW, I only just now added
truncation code to that routine, so look at current CVS. Perhaps the
routine should be renamed and placed somewhere else, so that sequence.c
and has_table_privilege can share it.)
Peter's argument seemed to be that there shouldn't be name-based
variants at all, with which I do not agree; but perhaps that's not
what he meant.
