> Currently, DelegationTokenAuthenticationHandler only support DT operations
> for the request user after it passes the authentication. However, it should
> also support the request user to do DT operations on behalf of the proxy user.
> Timeline server is using the authentication filter for DT operations instead
> of traditional RPC-based ones. It needs this feature to enable the proxy user
> to use the timeline service (YARN-2676).
