Wouldn't that be handled by inheritance?
I wish, but no: http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/ddl-inherit.html The first paragraph under "5.8.1 Caveats": Table access permissions are not automatically inherited. Therefore, a user attempting to access a parent table must either have permissions to do the same operation on all its child tables as well, or must use the ONLY notation. When adding a new child table to an existing inheritance hierarchy, be careful to grant all the needed permissions on it.
