   > About the current state of things and whether it needs clearer 
documentation, doing a bit more thinking, I think today, for someone to use SQL 
Lab they **need access to the database connection**, which implies that they 
have access to everything inside that database connection. Now it's possible 
for someone to give access to a db connection and define schema-level AND 
dataset-level access, which I believe is disregarded since the 
database-access-level permission overrides that.
   
   Very much my $0.02 here. 
   Docs could always be better for everything, everywhere, of course. But IMO 
it feels weird to spend time/effort expanding Superset's features to include 
controls for a SQL IDE, which is really just a user connecting to a DB, and up 
to the DBA and whatever permissions model is implemented at the organization. 
Feels outside the scope of a bi tool, certainly.
   
   I always thought of SQLLab as "cool, there is an IDE here I can use, that's 
nice to have". 
   If the use case was to allow certain users ONLY access to existing Superset 
datasets, that would make a bit more sense.
