    @mridulm the main argument for just dealing with Hadoop security is that 
it's been sufficient since the inception of Spark. I have never seen anyone ask 
for integration with any other type of system. Most of the non-Hadoop systems 
supported by Spark don't need this kind of functionality (e.g. S3 just uses 
secrets stored in configuration or a credential store - both of which are 
handled by the Hadoop libraries btw, not Spark).
    
    That being said, I think this whole discussion is distracting from the main 
goal of the change, which is to expose *Hadoop*-based security in Mesos-based 
applications. Would it make you more comfortable if the new API were kept 
`private[spark]`? It would limit extensibility in the case of Mesos (would be 
restricted to built-in providers), but would free us from this discussion and 
allow progress to happen.
    
    Really, personally, unless someone can given me a concrete example, I don't 
see a pressing need to have a lengthy discussion about non-Hadoop-based 
security frameworks.
