Provide information about a user via an information schema table

Details

    Description

      Detailed information about a user account, like

      • authentication plugin
      • password expiration
      • locked or not
      • resource limits
      • SSL

      is only stored in mysql system tables. Providing such information in an information schema table can be useful in some cases.

      • For a DBA it would be easier to find all account related information in one table to track down issues a user might report
      • A user can check in how many days his password expires
      • an application could implement a notification for a password to expire

      A standard user should only see information about his user account, a DBA for all users.
