I agree the topologies should run as the metron user, but this is just to
get things back in a working state again (and it already used to be this way,
so this isn't opening things up more than it was a couple weeks ago).
I actually thought there was a separate Jira for running as the Metron
user, but the one I was thinking of is
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-349. The ticket should really be
to consolidate everything under the metron user with appropriate ownership. I
don't have a preference for updating that ticket or closing it as a new one
(and I'm not sure which the community would prefer).
