Hi Mikhail, as far as i'm aware no one has looked into implementing this, if
someone (you?) would like to create a patch we would gladly review. If you are

> [SPNEGO|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SPNEGO] is the standard mechanism for
> Kerberos authentication over HTTP.
> Thrift should give users the option of using a Thrift HTTP client or server
> that is capable of authentication using SPNEGO/Kerberos. This will be useful
> for Hadoop which has chosen Kerberos as its standard authentication protocol,
> as well as people who need to use Kerberos authentication with Thrift based
> services running in servlet containers like Tomcat.
