In 6.5.3 I've found other strange thing. When I give user INSERT, UPDATE
permissions such user can do DELETE without DELETE permissions so in fact
if I do 
# grant UPDATE, INSERT, SELECT on a to user1;
it was treat as:
# grant UPDATE, INSERT, DELETE, SELECT on a to user1;

Today I want to test it on lastest CVS, but ... you know ;)
