Unfortunately, no. The only reason for
mysql.transaction_registryto exist is because transaction end cannot be stored directly in the versioned table. (simply, because it's not known at the time of the operation, it is only known at the time of commit, and it wold be too costly to postpone all updates till the commit time)You can create a view that joins with
mysql.transaction_registryso for your users the join will be hidden and implicit.If it's a question of privileges, you can just grant everyone SELECT privilege on
mysql.transaction_registry, and they can join, when needed.Not the answer I wanted, but it does make perfect sense. The next best thing would be to somehow put the transaction_registry table directly in the database with the versioned tables themselves so it's at least self-contained.
