Na Li commented on SENTRY-2352:
-------------------------------

[~spena] should user with drop privilege on that table be able to see the table when they execute SHOW TABLES in that database?

> A user with ALTER on a table in a database, doesn't see the table when they execute SHOW TABLES in that database.
> Also, the user with ALTER on a table in that database, can't execute DESCRIBE on that table.
> For the alter privilege to be useful, a user will want to be able to see the table that they have the privilege on, and be able to describe that table.
