Application-level security usually ends up being a waste of time
because any moderately clever individual (such as one who knows enough
to create their own queries) can easily circumvent it. The only way
around your problem is to restrict permissions on the server and force
people to use logins without full administrative permissions. Then you
don't have to lose sleep worrying about which tools they might use
that will circumvent your application-level security.
