Ben Spivey commented on SENTRY-110:
-----------------------------------
Good point Brock. Having an "opt-in" configuration makes better sense than an
"opt-out" when you are talking about relaxing some security restrictions.
> Add user's home directory as implied URI access

> 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.
