Allen Wittenauer commented on HDFS-6509:
----------------------------------------

I'll be honest I haven't been following closely this set of jiras. So let me 
apologize in advance. But this jira makes me wonder: what happens when a 
non-admin uses distcp?  .e.g., a lot of systems are configured that don't allow 
HDFS to run MR jobs.  Will they not be allowed to distcp encrypted data?
