Naveen Gangam commented on HIVE-25349:
--------------------------------------

[~gopalv] what if we added a new hive config parameter whose value is a header 
name that HS2 should trust. When set to "" (the default), it would be behave as 
today but when this config is set to a header value, it trusts this header is 
set by a frontend that has done the authentication.
Would this address your concern? Thanks
