information_schema.columns.column_default filtered based on user

Looking at the information_schema.columns view I have been wondering why
it only shows the column_default for columns in tables owned by the
current user? Makes things a bit misleading. I am thinking at least
superusers should be able to see that?

This is what I am talking about:

CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW information_schema.columns AS
SELECT current_database()::information_schema.sql_identifier AS
table_catalog,
<snip>
CASE
WHEN u.usename = "current_user"() THEN ad.adsrc
ELSE NULL::text
END::information_schema.character_data AS column_default,
<snip>
