-------------------------------------------------------------------

If doing it this way I think we should default the REST auth mode to the HBase 
auth setting if a specific REST authentication mode isn't specified in the 
configuration. 

The current patch is ok for 0.98 and branch-1 but we might want to do 
differently in master.

> It is reasonable that a user would want to secure the HBase REST interface 
> without having to incur the cost of securing the entire HBase/Hadoop 
> ecosystem.
> The current implementation does not allow that and needs to be modified.
