A <code class="structname">pg_default_acl</code> entry shows the initial privileges to
be assigned to an object belonging to the indicated user. There are
currently two types of entry: <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">global</span>”</span> entries with
<code class="structfield">defaclnamespace</code> = 0, and <span class="quote">“<span class="quote">per-schema</span>”</span> entries
that reference a particular schema. If a global entry is present then
it <span class="emphasis"><em>overrides</em></span> the normal hard-wired default privileges
for the object type. A per-schema entry, if present, represents privileges
to be <span class="emphasis"><em>added to</em></span> the global or hard-wired default privileges.
</p><p>
Note that when an ACL entry in another catalog is null, it is taken
to represent the hard-wired default privileges for its object,
<span class="emphasis"><em>not</em></span> whatever might be in <code class="structname">pg_default_acl</code>
at the moment. <code class="structname">pg_default_acl</code> is only consulted during
object creation.
