Thanks for the hint, this looks promising! However, I was looking for a
solution which I can use as "addon" to an existing PostgreSQL installation
(e.g., a script to run manually after each table/view creation or
modification) until this feature is fully integrated as tested. Any ideas
about that (or can Bernd's code be used this way)?
no, it can't. it must be patched in the code and recompile postgres...
AFAIK, there's no such tool. you will have to create the rules at hand
