    Not only that it was brilliant - as stated in my last post it
    also showed that there is a bug in the  rewrite  system  that
    must  get  fixed  so  we  can  use  views in INSERT...SELECT!
    Please add this to the TODO.

    For the pg_user permission problem I can think about  another
    solution.  It's  a  feature  still  on my personal wishlist -
    setuid views.


Until later, Jan
