Description:
------------
pg_metadata does not check if the current postgres user has the correct rights on the visibility  of the table passed as parameter.

So, if we have two postgres users (userA and userB for example) with two authorization schemas (that have the same name userA and userB) and in each schema we have a table with the same name but with different definition,
we can access only one of the two tables... 

Also pg_metadata does not accept passing the table with a namespace attached (for exampl userA.mytable)

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves. 

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external 
resources such as databases, etc. If the script requires a 
database to demonstrate the issue, please make sure it creates 
all necessary tables, stored procedures etc.

Please avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.
