Description
This is an initial proposal to add an option to do access control checks during system table reads.
The goal here is to open this for discussion with some concrete option on a table.
Additional context and related issues
This is related to an effort to add an iceberg system table that lists only iceberg tables (#24469).
A system table like that has to filter the table list using the
AccessControl#filterTables
method but up until now,AccessControl
was not available for system tables.Release notes
