Tom Lane 64d4da511c For foreign keys, check REFERENCES privilege only on the referenced table. ... We were requiring that the user have REFERENCES permission on both the referenced and referencing tables --- but this doesn't seem to have any support in the SQL standard, which says only that you need REFERENCES permission on the referenced table. And ALTER TABLE ADD FOREIGN KEY has already checked that you own the referencing table, so the check could only fail if a table owner has revoked his own REFERENCES permission. Moreover, the symmetric interpretation of this permission is unintuitive and confusing, as per complaint from Paul Jungwirth. So let's drop the referencing-side check. In passing, do a bit of wordsmithing on the GRANT reference page so that all the privilege types are described in similar fashion.
