situation that any user can access the system tables and it is on the
agenda to make it not possible. I didn't suggest it because I don't
recommend it even slightly. Use privileges as they are intended:
hacks are always risky and this one is A-rated.

I hope that when access to the sys tables is denied, then there would
be another way (ie services API) to get this (and other information
which is currenty available only quering sys tables). I don't see why
user shouldn't be able to query which roles / rights s/he has been
granted...
