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
