Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-16214:
----------------------------------------
[~ibuenros] So you are mapping principals like "owen/pii/admin" to local
accounts like "owen_pii_admin"? That would let you split permissions based on
whether they want "pii" access and "admin" access. I assume the roles nest such
that:
<user>/<role1>/<role2>@<realm> means that role2 is a subset of role1 and that
user has both roles. Is that what you are doing?
