> When implementing HBase security for an existing cluster, it can be useful to 
> support mixed secure and insecure clients while all client configurations are 
> migrated over to secure authentication.  
> We currently have an option to allow secure clients to fallback to simple 
> auth against insecure clusters.  By providing an analogous setting for 
> servers, we would allow a phased rollout of security:
> # First, security can be enabled on the cluster servers, with the 
> "permissive" mode enabled
> # Clients can be converting to using secure authentication incrementally
> # The server audit logs allow identification of clients still using simple 
> auth to connect
> # Finally, when sufficient clients have been converted to secure operation, 
> the server-side "permissive" mode can be removed, allowing completely secure 
> operation.
> Obviously with this enabled, there is no effective access control, but this 
> would still be a useful tool to enable a smooth operational rollout of 
> security.  Permissive mode would of course be disabled by default.  Enabling 
> it should provide a big scary warning in the logs on startup, and possibly be 
> flagged on relevant UIs.
