Brock Noland commented on SENTRY-110:
-------------------------------------
Thank you Jeff! Thinking about this more, I think we should have an option to
enable this feature. The reason being that it makes the system more permissive
which some users might not be aware of when upgrading. Configuration management
tools can make this easy to enable.

> It would be great if by default users are granted access to their own home
> directory (/user/<username>) without having an administrator grant them URI
> access. Explicit access does not scale well and requires frequent policy
> file changes. Having this feature would allow users to export query results
> as files in their home directory on HDFS.
> As part of this, there should be a global configuration to disable this
> feature.
