I'll update description.

There'll be no new opcode at all. See below.

You are right.

I'd call it a prologue, not begin or end. Initial (v1) version of the patch
supported dedicated hash which was used to emit AccessCheck only once, but
@kostya rejected it saying that this is over-engineering.

After some re-thinking and taking that statement into account I've come up to
following idea: we do not need new opcode at all, we'll use OpenRead/OpenWrite
to do the check. When OpenWrite will be eliminated w/ #3182, access will be
performed for OpenRead opcode, which is our ultimate goal.

So, I'll resubmit v3 version of the patch.

Not relevant anymore.

Fixed. Case added.

Case added.

I think there's nothing to investigate here: if view is referencing to
a table access to which is denied - then error should be reported and no
data retrieved from the table.
