Description
Currently user access can be constrained at the database level, however in some cases it may be useful to limit access even further to the measurement level (similar to MySQL's `GRANT` on table-level access).
Contributor guide
Research direction
The issue provides no files, tests, or entry points; begin by examining the existing database-level authorization behavior and the MySQL table-level GRANT analogy. Done would require a decided design and implementation that restricts access to individual measurements, with corresponding verification.
