Íñigo Goiri commented on HDFS-15051:
------------------------------------

I would extend the unit tests to cover:
* A mount table with permissions rwxrwxr-x and a user from the same group 
changing the destination (success) and a user from a different group failing to 
do so.
* Similar test for removal.

On top of this, we should make sure the admin user can change all this even 
with no permissions.

> The current permission checker of #MountTableStoreImpl is not very restrict.

> I just propose revoke WRITE MountTableEntry privilege to super user only.
