Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-6122:
----------------------------------------
Few questions:
1. Instead of
> show grant user hive_test_user on all;
another alternative is not to introduce new keyword/token and instead if user
doesn't specify resource, show grants for all resources, ie
> show grant user hive_test_user;
We can further cut down this to:
> show grant;
Above will show all grants for current user.
2. Also does this patch work for roles as well, ie
> show grant role hive_test_role;
> Implement show grant on <resource>

> needed, which shows all principals for a resource.
