Where do I control hbase namespace from ranger?

This option is available in ranger but I don't see it. I have ranger version .50. Screen shot:

As you can see from above nothing for namespace. Am I missing something?

namespace:* works! but with a twist.

I created a namespace called 'testns'.

On ranger I am able to do testns:* and it gives me security access over all tables within this namespace. It worked with all namespace i created.

HOWEVER!!! - this does not work with default. So I need to create a new thread on HCC asking community why default namespace (default:*) is not controlable via ranger.

Is this problem solved? It's so weird that Apache Ranger doesn't support default:*. I'm wondering if there is any update for this issue or not?

@Artem Ervits @Mehrdad Niasari I believe we can lose this question. i have opened new one on default namespace here.
