Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-2528:
--------------------------------------

> IMHO such extra early checks are not very useful and extra load on the 
> server. 

This doesn't increase the load over already existing early checks.  We already 
list the directories, and these listings now contain ownership and permission 
information.  This patch just checks that information too.

> check permissions for job inputs and outputs
