Pass table name to extension functions #8

Closed kfranqueiro closed 2 years ago

kfranqueiro commented 2 years ago

I have a use case where multiple tables have a name field, but only one of them refers to PII that needs to be scrubbed, while the other tables should remain intact.

Currently there's no way to disambiguate which table we're working with. This PR would pass the table name as an additional argument to extension functions so that they can make smarter decisions about how/if to anonymize.

Open to other ideas here; I figured this way wouldn't cause any breaking changes.

Does something hold back this PR that I can help with?
