Lefty Leverenz commented on HIVE-5961:
--------------------------------------

Doc note:  This should be documented in the EXPLAIN wikidoc (with version 
information).  The authorization docs should also mention it, perhaps with 
examples, and link to the EXPLAIN syntax.

Question:  Does this work for all three types of authorization?

* [LanguageManual -- Explain | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Explain]
* [LanguageManual -- Authorization | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+Authorization]
** [Storage Based Authorization | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Storage+Based+Authorization+in+the+Metastore+Server]
** [SQL Standard Based Authorization | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/SQL+Standard+Based+Hive+Authorization]
** [Default Authorization -- Legacy Mode | 
https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/Hive+Default+Authorization+-+Legacy+Mode]
