Description:
MySQL [test]> create view v1 as select default(i) from t1;
ERROR 1143 (42000): create view command denied to user 'root'@'localhost' for column 'default(i)' in table 'v1'

MySQL [test]> select @@version;
+--------------+
| @@version    |
+--------------+
| 5.7.10-debug |
+--------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

I can't find the limitation in the manual. 

How to repeat:
create table t1 (i int default 0);
insert into t1 values (1);
select default(i) from t1;
create view v1 as select default(i) from t1;
