I do not think that that's very likely to happen --- at least not in the
foreseeable future. What is likely to happen for 7.2 is support for
schemas as defined by the SQL92 standard. Schemas are basically a level
of naming in between databases and individual tables. By assigning
separate schemas to each user, you could avoid table naming conflicts
between users, but it would still be possible to access a table in
another schema of the same database.
