Chris Nauroth commented on HADOOP-12913:
----------------------------------------
+1 for the proposal. It's effectively public at this point given the need for
numerous downstream projects to use it to get anything practical done. We need
to treat it as public anyway and make sure code changes are
backwards-compatible.
I'd also argue that the same change needs to be done for numerous other
security-related classes: {{SecurityUtil}}, {{Credentials}} and token-related
stuff. I'm fine with moving in small steps though if others prefer to keep the
scope of this JIRA limited to UGI.

> UGI declares itself as
> {code}
> {@InterfaceAudience.LimitedPrivate({"HDFS", "MapReduce", "HBase", "Hive",
> "Oozie"})
> {code}
> Really its "any application that interacts with services in a secure
