Ya know, I was thinking maybe adopting the idea of medieval times... if you
get caught screwing around with the tables, I cut off your fingers... but
there is this company policy against bodily harm against programmers... the
SPCA comes around and fines you for hurting dumb animals... 
 
This was safer.

Shackles work very well in that case.  Possibly you could borrow a few pairs
of handcuffs from the local police department!!  *-)

no, I don't think that will give me what I'm really after... 
 
The idea is to tie the hands of the programmers to such an extent that I
KNOW what they can and can not do... and how bad they can put me in a bind.

Would it also work to create a logon trigger that does an "alter session set
current_schema = " instead of creating synonyms?

 Ended up having to create case sensitive synonyms (upper case version,
lower case version) on the double quoted table structures or the user
couldn't log in.  

Granting is easy... aliasing is the interesting part. 

Try create synonym user on whoever.user 
Oracle tends to get testy.

I guess dump software from vendors that don't understand reserved words 
wouldn't cut it? 
  
Seriously, wouldn't granting all privileges on the objects to another 
user work ?

Has anyone worked with Authorete software against an Oracle database 
before? 

I am trying (silly me) to impose some security on this product, and they 
have tables called... user... privilege... group... session... and I 
need to have the tables owned by one user while another user can SUID 
the data, but not affect the table structure (got burned on financials 
implementation with customizations... ) and it is geeking out when the 
user tries to log into the front end...
