As the grants go select, insert, update, delete are all separate privileges; I would expect that one could have insert-only privileges on a table given that information (I don't currently have a database to test that on). I don't know what good that would do since inserted values could not be verified by the user performing the inserts, but it certainly appears to be possible,
