    If user 'B' has 'DROP ANY TABLE' priviledge, then user 'B' can truncate tables own by user 'A'

    User A could create a stored procedure to truncate that table, and grant execute permission on it to users B, D, F, whoever.

    Stored procedures created with DEFINER rights, rather than INVOKER rights, are an excellent way of controlling permissions in this way.
