pg_privileges would be better.  "Permissions" is not an SQL term.

I would be happy to review this patch, but a look through the email leaves me
thinking it may still be waiting on a C implementation of pg_get_acl(). Is that
right? And perhaps a view rename to pg_privileges, following Peter's comment?

It looked to me as if the -hackers messages of 25 and 26 March 2021 had
found a consensus that a pg_get_acl() function would be a good thing,
with the views to be implemented over that.

I'm just not seeing any later patch that adds such a function.
