You misunderstood me, I meant the space object, since we used to check for CREATE privilege on space itself to create an index previously. Checking for ALTER on space, would allow exactly what you want with CREATE/ALTER/DROP of an index. The owner has every privilege, including ALTER, so he is able to do anything with the indices. If someone else created an index on your space, and you want to drop it, it is no problem. This is why we check for ALTER OR DROP on space in case of dropping an index. > I imagine if an index has an independent owner, one would not be > able to drop their own space if some other user created an index > on it. > > Let's try to avoid this.

What Oracle does is they have separate entities INDEX and TABLE, and in order to create an index, you need to have an INDEX privilege on a space OR you may have a CREATE ANY INDEX privilege. So, technically, non-owners can create indices in your tables, but again, if you want to drop a table, it is dropped together with all the indices no matter who their owner is. (The same thing we may achieve with privilege checks that I and Georgy propose). > > We also have an option of separating INDEX and SPACE as entities, > and introducing INDEX entity.

IMO it would unnecessarily complicate access control, cos we would need to grant all the needed privileges on an index to space owner, and we also would have to make it so that theese privileges cannot be revoked. OR we can set space owner as the definer of any index created on that space, but again, this seems strange. If you are a non-owner of the space, you create an index and immediately lose control over it. We may also consult with Peter Gulutzan. Do you want me to write him?
