Alejandro Abdelnur commented on HDFS-2316: ------------------------------------------ Regarding #2, regarding the token encoding, then it should be something like 'encodedToken' and whatever it is the encoding it should be clearly documented if the token is to be used (other than as an opaque value by clients). Regarding #2, 'Path' is fine.
