> This issue is in lieu with HBASE-10322.  In case of export tool, when the 
> cells with visibility labels are exported using a super user we should be 
> able to export the data.  But with the current implementation, the super user 
> would also be able to view cells that has visibility labels associated with 
> the superuser.  The idea of HBASE-10322 is to strip out tags based on user 
> and if so this change is necessary for export tool to work with Visibility.  
> ACL already has a concept of global admins.
