this seems great. I wonder tho, how do you ensure new columns are masked by default? It seems a safer alternative would be to start with all columns being statically masked and only unveil them selectively.

I guess you can add some CI steps when modifying the db to ensure a give column is allowed or masked, but still, would be nice if this was defaulted the other way around.
