Here's an interesting edge-case to consider: what if a user creates themselves a token for a specific table, then deletes that table, and waits for another user to create a table of the same name... and then uses their previously created token to write to the table that someone else created?

Not sure if this is a threat I need to actively consider, but it's worth thinking a little bit about the implications of such a thing - since there will be APIs that allow users to create tables, and there may be cases where people want to have a concept of users "owning" specific tables.

This is probably something that could be left for plugins to solve, but it still needs to be understood and potentially documented.

There may even be a world in which tracking the timestamp at which a table was created becomes useful - because that could then be baked into API tokens, such that a token created BEFORE the table was created does not grant access to that table.
