Description:
How does mysql determine access privilege e.g. GRANT ... 
after the user been authenticated through the authentication plugin. 

should it be another authorization plugin 
or is it possible to use the authentication plugin

How to repeat:
n/a??

Authentication is totally separate from authorization.
Authorization in mysql happens through the data in the mysql system tables.
