At the moment, only roles and user email are used to verify ownership by row owners. But, it would be more helpful to have row id used too for row owner. Meaning that a user could change email without affecting any row owners access. Also, it would be more relationship friendly.

I believe you can assign the RowID as a role and use that for row ownership, that way, access isn’t tied to email and stays intact even if it changes. Would that solve what you’re trying to do?

Having the three options is actually useful. So having even more than just these three ones, could actually be even better.
