Re: BUG #5147: DBA can not access view

I think it is right---the superuser can select from
the view, even if the view's owner tries to prevent that---,

but maybe a good way is checking owner's privilage when creating a view as
Oracle.

It would be better not to create a view if a user cann`t access a table.
