I can confirm it works correctly in 2.5.x (can't say anything about 3.x
though). We're using the same approach (the users of our system are
actually created as FB users, so granting access to PUBLIC is more
convenient than having to execute dozens of grants after adding each new
user; I know it has some downsides, but that's not the point here).
