Hello,
Please find the proposal for the Negative Grants project attached along
with this e-mail. It would be great to hear your opinions and suggestions
on the approach proposed here, before delving into its implementation.
Some context about the project:


*The current privilege system allows access in this manner:GRANT SELECT ON
some_database.* TO a_user@%;Any revoke would revoke access from the entire
database. We want to support a revoke that would disable select on a
specific table, like:REVOKE SELECT ON some_database.secret_table FROM
a_user@%;Reference:[1] https://jira.mariadb.org/browse/MDEV-14443
