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

You clearly don't want to know my thoughts, given the conversation that 
happened in this very jira months ago.

> Deprecate mapred.permissions.supergroup in favor of 
> hadoop.cluster.administrators

> HADOOP-6568 added the configuration {{hadoop.cluster.administrators}} through 
> which admins can configure who the superusers/supergroups for the cluster 
> are. MAPREDUCE itself already has {{mapred.permissions.supergroup}} (which is 
> just a single group). As agreed upon at HADOOP-6568, this should be 
> deprecated in favor of {{hadoop.cluster.administrators}}.
